G.ENERAL   CATALOGUE 


PREFACE 


In  accordance  with  a  resolution  of  tlie  Faculty  of  ilie  Tioches- 
ter  Theological  Seminary  passed  April  3,  1890,  the  Board  of 
Trustees  at  its  meeting  in  May  1899,  authorized  the  undersigned 
committee  to  prepare  and  publish  this  fourth  edition  of  the  Gen- 
eral Catalogue.  Previous  editions  appeared  in  1869,  1876,  and 
1889. 

This  issue  includes  the  names  of  all  officers  of  the  New  York 
Baptist  Union  for  Ministerial  Education  and  of  all  officers  and 
members  of  the  Board  of  Trustees.  It  also  aims  to  furnish,  with 
reference  to  all  persons  who  have  been  members  of  the  Faculty 
and  students  of  the  Seminary,  trustworthy  information  respecting 
the  time  and  place  of  their  birth,  their  collegiate  and  theological 
studies,  their  public  services,  and  in  cases  that  may  require  it,  of 
their  death.  The  attempt  has  also  been  made  to  give  all  hon- 
orary degrees  above  that  of  M.  A.  with  the  dates  and  sources, 
and  a  list  of  published  works. 

The  names  of  students  are  arranged  under  their  respective 
classes  in  the  following  order :  first,  all  graduates  of  the  regular 
course,  in  alphabetical  order  with  the  year  of  graduation ;  second, 
students  who  did  not  take  the  regular  course  of  study  in  all  its 
parts,  or  who  did  not  remain  until  the  course  was  completed, 
arranged  in  alphabetical  order  with  a  statement  of  the  time  spent 
by  each  in  the  Seminary,  and  separated  from  the  full  graduates 
by  a  single  line.  The  fact  that  from  1883  to  1889  an  English 
course  was  provided  for  men  who  did  not  study  the  Scriptures  in 
the  original,  has  made  a  three-fold  division  necessary  for  the 
classes  from  1884  to  1892.  During  these  years  the  names  of  the 
full  graduates  are  followed  by  the  names  of  the  men  who  com-

pleted  tlic  prescribed  English  course,  arranged  in  alphabetical 
order,  with  the  time  spent  in  the  Seminary,  and  separated  from 
the  graduates  by  a  single  line.  And  separated  by  a  double  line 
from  the  Englisli  students,  the  names  of  all  those  who  did  not 
complete  either  of  the  prescribed  courses  are  given.  The  names 
of  full  graduates  are  all  printed  in  large  type.  In  a  few  cases 
graduates  of  other  schools  who  pursued  further  studies  in  this 
Seminary  are  placed  at  the  head  of  the  graduating  class  of  the 
year  of  their  residence,  separated  from  tlie  graduates  by  a  broken 
line.  Graduate  students  of  this  institution  receive  due  credit  at 
the  appropriate  place  in  their  record. 

A  statement  concerning  the  purpose  and  history  of  the  Ger- 
man Department  of  the  Seminary,  as  well  as  a  record  of  its 
classes,  will  be  found  immediately  following  the  records  of  the 
Eng-lish  classes. 

A  denomination,  or  a  state,  or  an  occupation,  once  used  in  a 
record  continues  in  force  until  a  new  one  is  given.  Unless  other- 
wise stated  the  persons  named  are  members  of  Baptist  churches 
and  the  churches  are  Baptist. 

An  asterisk  (*)  indicates  a  deceased  officer  or  student.  A  dash 
and  semicolon  or  period  following  the  year  of  entrance  upon  a 
service  indicates  that  the  person  still  continues  in  the  work  last 
mentioned.  A  semicolon  at  the  end  of  a  record  indicates  that 
further  information  is  wanting. 

In  the  preparation  of  this  Catalogue  valuable  assistance  has 
been  rendered  by  the  members  of  the  Faculty,  by  former  students, 
l)y  the  registrars  and  librarians  of  many  institutions  of  learning, 
and  by  many  pastors,  church  clerks  and  other  officials.  To  all  of 
these  friends,  the  connnittee  desire  to  render  thanks.  They  de- 
sire also  to  make  special  mention  of  valuable  aid  furnished  by 
J)r.  C.  \i.  Brown  of  Newton  Theological  Institution. 

It  remains  only  to  add  that  notwithstanding  all  efforts,  the 
Catalogue  is  still  by  no  means  complete,  and  undoubtedly  con-

tains  its  full  quota  of  errors.  So  far  as  possible  in  the  case  of  the 
living  the  attempt  has  been  made  to  secure  the  authority  of  each 
man  for  his  own  record.  In  some  cases,  however,  it  has  not  been 
possible  to  secure  the  addresses  of  men  who  are  no  longer  in  the 
pastorate. 

Any  communications  with  regard  to  corrections  and  the  com- 
pletion of  defective  records  in  this  Catalogue  will  be  welcomed 
by  the  committee.  These  communications  or  others  with  regard 
to  future  changes  of  location  may  be  sent  to  any  member  of  the 
Faculty. 

The  attention  of  all  former  students  is  particularly  directed  to 
the  fact  that  secretaries  have  been  secured  for  nearly  all  of  the 
classes,  and  every  man  is  urged  to  inform  the  secretary  of  his 
class  of  all  changes  of  location.  Attention  to  this  request  will 
make  the  intercourse  between  the  Seminary  and  its  graduates 
more  constant  and  intimate,  and  will  also  materially  lessen  the 
labors  of  the  editors  of  future  editions  of  tlie  General  Catalogue.

A  Convention  of  the  Baptist  denomination  of  the  State  of 
New  York  "to  consider  the  present  aspect  of  the  educational 
affairs  of  the  denomination  in  the  State  and  to  take  such  action 
thereon  as  may  be  deemed  wise  and  expedient,"  was  held  in 
Albany,  October  9  and  10,  1819. 

The  committee  of  nine  appointed  by  the  Albany  Convention 
met  in  Rochester  in  December,  1849. 

The  New  York  Baptist  Union  for  Ministerial  Education  was 
organized  by  act  of  an  educational  convention  of  the  Baptist 
denomination  called  l)y  the  committee  of  nine  in  Rochester, 
May  11,  1850. 

The  first  meeting  of  the  Board  of  Trustees  for  executive  busi- 
ness was  held  in  August,  1850,  and  it  was  resolved  to  open  the 
Rochester  Theological  Seminary  on  the  first  Monday  in  Novem- 
ber, 1850. 

Articles  of  Incorporation  were  executed  May  13,  1850,  and 
acknowledged  August  31,  1850. 

The  first  annual  meeting  of  the  New  York  Baptist  Union  for 
Ministerial  Education  was  held  November  4,  1850. 

The  Rochester  Theological  Seminar}'  was  opened  for  instruc- 
tion November  4,  1850. 

From  1850  to  1860  the  course  of  study  in  the  Seminary  ex- 
tended over  only  two  years.  At  the  annual  meeting  of  the  Union 
July  10,  18G0,  the  course  was  lengthened  to  three  years  and  in 
consequence  no  class  was  graduated  in  18G2. 

Until  18r»2  the  anniversaries  were  held  in  connection  with 
those  of  the  University  of  Rochester,  and  came  on  tlie  Thursday 


CHRONOLOGICAL    NOTES  IX 

following  the  second  Wednesday  in  July.  Beginning  with  1863 
the  anniversaries  have  been  held  in  May,  during  the  second  or 
the  third  week  of  the  month. 

The  year  has  generally  opened  the  first  week  in  September. 
Until  1860  the  session  was  divided  into  three  terms;  since  1860 
it  has  been  divided  into  two  terms,  by  a  vacation  of  one  week 
including  the  winter  holidays,  and  a  long  summer  vacation.

GERMA]^   DEPARTMENT. 


HISTORICAL  NOTE. 

The  idea  of  providing  a  place  where  young  men  of  German 
birth  could  obtain  some  training  for  tlie  work  of  preaching  the 
gospel  to  the  Germans  in  our  country,  originated  with  the 
Rev.  Zenas  Freeman,  the  first  corresponding  secretary  of  the  New 
York  Baptist  Union  for  Ministerial  Education.  In  his  travels 
among  the  Baptist  Churches,  Mr,  Freeman  learned  of  the  Urst 
successful  beginnings  Baptists  from  Germany  had  made  in  such 
centers  as  Newark,  N.  J.,  Philadelphia,  Pa.,  New  York  City  and 
Buffalo,  and  concluded  to  encourage  promising  young  men  in 
these  German  churches  to  carry  on  this  work  still  further.  He 
invited  them  to  come  to  Rochester.  In  the  first  published  cata- 
logue of  the  Seminary  a  special  course  of  studies,  embracing  aca- 
demical, collegiate  and  theological  subjects,  and  extending  over  a 
period  of  four  years,  was  announced  as  designed  to  meet  the  wants 
of  such  young  men.  The  first  German  student  came  in  1851  and 
remained  for  two  years.  In  1852  several  others  followed,  but  only 
one  of  these  succeeded  in  completing  the  entire  course,  graduating 
from  the  University  of  Rochester  and  the  English  Department 
of  the  Seminary.  Inability  to  make  sufiicient  practical  use  of 
the  English  language  cut  the  course  of  the  others  short.  For  this 
reason  also  the  increase  in  the  number  of  German  students  was 
very  slight,  until  the  trustees  of  the  New  York  Baptist  Union,  in 
1858,  appointed  a  native  German  teacher  and  thereby  established 
what  has  since  been  called  the  German  Department.  Rev.  Au- 
gustus Rauschenbusch  D.D.  was  the  first  teacher.  lie  remained 
in  this  position  for  thirty-one  years.  With  the  success  of  the 
German  Baptist  churches  in  our  country  the  demand  for  a  larger 
number  of  pastors  and  missionaries  increased.  This  necessitated 
the  corresponding  broadening  out  of  the  course  of  instruction  and 
the  appointment  of  additional  teachers.  In  1872  the  Rev.  Her- 
mann M.  Schaeffer,  and  in  1884  the  Rev.  Jacob  S.  Gubelmann 
D.D.,  were  added  to  the  faculty,  and  when,  in  1889,  Professor 


GENERAL    CATALOGUE  215 

Rauschenbnscli  resio;ned  his  position,  the  Rev.  Albert  J.  Ramaker 
and  in  18!)0  the  Rev.  Lewis  Kaiser,  were  elected.  Professor 
Schaeffer  died  in  1897  and  the  Rev.  Walter  Ransclienl)asch  was 
appointed  his  successor.  Up  to  1875  the  course  of  instruction 
extended  over  three  years,  but  was  then  lengthened  to  four  years  ; 
in  1883  another  year  was  added  and  still  another  in  1888,  making 
the  present  course  in  the  German  Department  of  six  years  dura- 
tion, of  which  the  last  three  years  are  devoted  exclusively  to  theo- 
logical instruction. 

At  the  time  when  the  German  Department  w^as  established, 
it  was  the  only  Baptist  institution  of  its  kind  in  the  world.  In 
the  earlier  years  it,  therefore  attracted  young  Germans  from  across 
the  ocean,  a  goodly  number  of  whom,  after  having  completed  the 
course  of  instruction  here,  went  back  to  labor  in  the  Fatherland. 
The  number  of  such  graduates,  who  are  still  in  the  active  minis- 
try in  Germany,  Russia  and  Soutli  Africa,  is  tw^elve.  There  have 
also  gone  out  from  the  German  Department  ten  young  men  who 
have  become  foreign  missionaries.  The  chief  object  of  the  Ger- 
man Department  has,  however,  been  to  prepare  young  men  for 
the  work  of  preaching  the  Gospel  to  the  Germans  in  our  own 
country.  In  recent  years  a  number  of  Slavs  have  been  admitted, 
one  of  whom,  after  having  taken  a  partial  course,  has  recently 
been  appointed  to  labor  among  the  Poles  in  Detroit,  Mich. ;  a  few 
others,  one  of  them  a  Lett,  are  still  preparing  for  a  similar  work. 
It  appears  that  the  German  Department  can  extend  its  usefulness 
by  preparing  the  missionaries  for  other  segments  of  our  hetero- 
geneous population  until  such  a  time  when  these  missions  shall  be 
strono;  enough  to  undertake  that  work  themselves.

HISTORICAL   DISCOURSE 


INTRODUCTOEY  ^OTE 


The  Semi-Centennial  Exercises  of  the  Seminary  were  held 
from  May  6th  to  Maj  10th,  1900.  As  appropriate  to  the  follow- 
ing Historical  Discourse,  the  program  of  these  Exercises  is  included 
in  the  present  publication. 


HISTORICAL    DISCOURSE  309 

HISTORICAL    DISCOURSE 

By  President  AUGUSTUS  H.  STRONG. 


The  Theological  Seminary  of  our  day  is  an  institution  of 
American  origin.  By  the  term  Theological  Seminary,  I  mean 
a  school  which  gives  instruction  in  all  the  branches  pertaining 
to  divinity,  and  which  presupposes,  but  does  not  itself  give,  a 
merely  literary  or  scientific  education.  Europe  in  the  middle 
ages  had  many  monastic  schools  where  scholastic  divinity  was 
mixed  with  a  modicum  of  secular  learning,  and  the  continental 
and  English  universities  gave  to  candidates  for  orders  some 
opportunity  to  add  Hebrew  and  theology  to  a  much  larger  stock 
of  other  knowledge.  But  until  the  nineteenth  century  small 
progress  had  been  made  abroad  toward  differentiating  sacred 
from  secular  studies,  or  toward  establishing  sciiools  of  theology 
upon  the  same  basis  as  schools  of  law  or  medicine. 

The  lack  of  such  schools  has  had  its  serious  consequences.  If 
Luther  had  instituted  specific  schools  of  divinity  imbued  with 
the  spirit  of  the  Reformation,  instead  of  trusting  the  instruction 
of  the  churches  to  men  educated  in  the  old  universities,  the 
fruits  of  that  o-i'cat  revival  of  religion  mio-ht  not  have  been  lost 
and  Germany  might  not  so  soon  have  swung  off  into  rationalism. 
If  Oxford  and  Cambridge  had  provided  a  thorough  theological 
training  after  their  undergraduates  had  taken  their  degrees  in 
the  classics  and  mathematics,  we  would  not  see  so  painful  a 
dearth  of  doctrine  in  England,  and  textbooks  so  musty  as  Burnet 
on  the  Thirty-nine  Articles,  or  Pearson  on  the  Creed,  would  not 
continue  to  be  the  best  representatives  of  English  systematic 
divinity. 

Of  all  the  Theological  Seminaries  which  now  exist  in  the 
United  States  the  oldest  is  that  of  the  Dutch  Reformed  Church 
at  New  Brunswick,  New  Jersey.  That  Seminary  was  founded 
in  1784.  A  preparatory  collegiate  education  was  from  the  first 
required,  before  the  student  was  permitted  to  enter  upon  his 
course  of  divinity,  and  Dr.  John  H.  Livingston  was  for  forty 


310  ROCHESTER   THEOLOGICAL    SEMINARY 

years  the  teacher  of  theoloojy.  It  was  not  until  1808,  or  twenty- 
four  years  afterwards,  that  the  first  Theoloojical  Seminary  of 
New  England  was  established  at  Andover.  The  history  of  An- 
dover  is  so  important  a  part  of  the  general  history  of  education 
and  of  theology  in  this  country,  that  I  may  be  pardoned  for 
according  to  it  a  somewhat  more  extended  treatment. 

The  early  life  of  JSTew  England  was  distinctly  religious.  One 
of  the  first  acts  of  the  Colony  of  Massachusetts  Bay  was  to  found 
a  college  at  Cambridge  which  might  educate  youth  after  the 
pattern  of  Cambridge  in  Old  England.  It  was  in  large  part  for 
the  sake  of  training  ministers  of  the  gospel  that  the  colonists 
gave  out  of  their  poverty,  and  thenceforth  the  church  and  the 
school  went  together.  Though  the  first  President  of  Harvard, 
Henry  Dunster,  was  deposed  because  he  could  not  sanction 
infant  baptism,  yet  in  1T22  Thomas  Ilollis  of  London,  a  dis- 
tinguished merchant  and  a  Baptist,  endowed  the  Hollis  Profes- 
sorship of  Divinity  in  that  University,  and  instruction  in  theology 
formed  part  of  the  training  of  all  its  students.  This  training  was 
long  conducted  on  Calvinistic  lines.  But  the  Great  Awakening 
under  Jonathan  Edwards,  while  on  the  whole  it  largely  added  to 
evangelical  forces,  did  also  repel  many,  and  the  Unitarian  defec- 
tion began.  In  1805  the  election  of  Henrj^  Ware,  a  pronounced 
Unitarian,  to  the  Hollis  Professorship  of  Divinity  filled  the  ortho- 
dox majority  with  alarm,  and,  as  a  barrier  against  what  they 
thought  an  inflowing  tide  of  error,  they  established  in  1808  the 
Andover  Theological  Seminary,  with  Dr.  Leonard  Woods  as  its 
first  professor. 

The  Constitution  of  Andover  declares  it  to  be  established  for 
those  intending  ministers  of  the  gospel  who  have  ''  honorably 
completed  a  course  of  liberal  education,"  and  a  supplementary 
law  of  1817  ordains  that  "a  college  education  shall  be  ever 
deemed  an  essential  condition  of  admission,  except  only  in  some 
rare  cases  of  distinguished  talents,  information  and  piety."  Let 
us  praise  the  founders  of  Andover,  not  only  for  the  example 
they  set,  but  for  the  men  they  trained.  Baptists  owe  to  Andover 
such  men  as  Adoniram  Judson,  Luther  Rice,  Irali  Chase,  Henry 
J,  Ripley,  Francis  Wayland,  Adiel  Sherwood,  Alva  Woods, 
Solomon  Peck,  John  Stevens,  Samuel  F.  Smith,  Milo  P.  Jewett, 
and  Horatio  B.  Hackett. 


HISTOBICAL    DISCOURSE  311 

It  was  perhaps  a  conviction  that  theology  had  a  right  to  the 
best,  it  was  perhaps  the  need  of  meeting  the  Andover  movement 
by  a  corresponding  advance,  that  led  Harvard  University  in  ISll 
to  begin  a  separate  course  of  exercises  in  Divinity,  with  Dr. 
Henry  Ware  for  its  first  professor,  and  Edward  Everett  for  its 
first  student.  The  very  next  year,  or  in  1812,  Princeton  followed, 
by  establishing,  side  by  side  with  its  college,  a  distinct  Theo- 
logical Seminary,  which  had  three  j)upils  and  Dr.  Archibald 
Alexander  as  the  only  teacher.  Ten  years  later,  or  in  1822,  the 
Yale  Divinity  School,  with  Dr.  Nathaniel  W.  Taylor  for  its  sole 
professor,  was  set  off  as  a  separate  department  from  the  college. 
It  was  these  American  examples  of  distinctly  theological  schools 
which  provoked  the  Scotch  and  the  English  to  imitation,  so  that 
now  we  find  a  Wyckliffe  Hall  at  Oxford,  a  Ridley  Hall  at  Cam- 
bridge, both  belonging  to  the  Established  Church,  and  a  multi- 
tude of  Theological  Colleges  of  other  denominations  scattered 
throughout  the  United  Kingdom. 

The  Baptists  of  this  country,  as  their  growth  was  later  than 
that  of  the  standing  order,  and  as  they  were  subject  to  many  and 
onerous  civil  disabilities,  came  naturally  after  the  Dutch  Reformed, 
the  Congregationalists,  the  Unitarians,  and  the  Presbyterians,  in 
their  founding  of  Theological  Seminaries.  From  the  beginning, 
however,  there  had  been  educated  men  among  them.  Roger 
Williams  had  been  trained  in  the  University  of  Cambridge, 
Morgan  Edwards  and  William  Stoughton  were  students  of  Bris- 
tol College,  James  Manning  was  a  graduate  of  Princeton,  John 
Clarke  in  the  seventeenth  century  and  Samuel  Stillman  in  the 
eighteenth,  though  not  college  graduates,  were  learned  men  and 
friends  of  learning.  Reverence  for  the  Bible  led  Baptists  to 
value  education  as  a  means  of  interpreting  the  Bible.  So  early 
as  176-1  Baptists  had  founded  Rhode  Island  College,  which  after- 
wards became  Brown  University.  There  many  a  young  man  was 
trained  for  the  Baptist  ministry.  But  it  was  not  until  1825,  or 
sixty-one  years  after  the  establishment  of  Brown,  that  Baptists 
had  an  exclusively  theological  institution.  Newton  led  the  way, 
following  Yale  only  three  years,  Princeton  thirteen.  Harvard 
fourteen,  Andover  seventeen,  and  New  Brunswick  forty-one. 
It  is  the  glory  of  Newton  that  for  twenty-five  years  she  furnished 
our  denomination  with  its  most  adv^anced  training  and  with  many 
of  its  noblest  preachers  and  leaders. 


312  ROCHESTER   THEOLOGICAL    SEMINARY 

As  Baptists  made  their  way  westward,  they  felt  the  need  of 
local  schools,  instead  of  depending  npon  New  England,  The 
State  of  New  York  was  no  mean  field  for  Baptist  education.  It 
was  not  to  be  expected,  in  those  days  of  imperfect  knowledge 
and  financial  weakness,  that  theological  should  have  been  sepa- 
rated from  general  culture.  When,  on  the  first  of  May,  1820^ 
the  Hamilton  Literary  and  Theological  Institution  began  its 
sessions  in  the  third  story  of  a  brick  building,  the  first  story  of 
which  was  occupied  by  the  district  school  and  the  second  by  the 
Hamilton  Academy,  it  attempted  no  new  methods.  It  aimed  at 
general  preparation  for  the  ministry.  Theological  training  and 
literary  training  were  given  together.  Daniel  Haskall  taught 
Rhetoric  and  Nathaniel  Kendrick  taught  Theology.  The  insti- 
tution admitted  only  those  who  purposed  to  preach  the  gospel, 
and  among  its  first  pupils  were  Jonathan  Wade  and  Eugenio 
Kincaid,  both  of  them  afterwards  for  many  years  most  successful 
missionaries  in  Burma  and  heroes  of  tlie  Christian  faith. 

The  Hamilton  Literary  and  Theological  Institution  went  on 
for  nearly  twenty  years,  or  nntil  1839,  before  it  opened  its  doors 
to  those  who  sought  a  secular  education.  But  a  few  years  of 
expei'ience  in  combining  literary  and  theological  instruction  con- 
vinced its  supporters  that  the  two  should  be  separated,  and  that 
a  Theological  Seminary  should  be  constituted  like  that  at  New- 
ton. In  1846,  therefore,  Madison  University  was  incorporated, 
and  the  Hamilton  Theological  Seminary  began  a  separate  exist- 
ence. Certain  personal  differences  attending  the  change  com- 
bined with  the  broadening  horizon  to  suggest  the  thought  that 
Hamilton  was  too  rural  a  place,  and  too  far  removed  from  the 
routes  of  travel,  to  furnish  the  best  centre  of  educational  influ- 
ence. A  large  majority  of  the  Trustees  of  Madison  University 
became  persuaded  that  Rochester  offered  a  better  location,  and 
an  agitation  for  removal  began,  which  soon  involved  every  Bajj- 
tist  church  in  the  State  and  was  accompanied  by  bitter  parti- 
zanship. 

Except  for  the  purposes  of  history,  we  might  well  prefer  to 
pass  over  in  silence  many  of  the  events  of  the  next  few  years. 
We  can  fortunately  now  review  them  without  passion,  and  can 
acknowledge  that  neither  party  was  wholly  free  from  blame. 
There  can  be  little  doubt  that  the  sentiment  of  the  denomination 


HISTORICAL    DISCOURSE  31S 

at  large  strongly  favored  removal.  The  Hamilton  Trustees  had 
failed  [in  their  effort  to  secure  an  endowment,  and  they  believed 
that  the  unfortunate  location  of  the  institution  was  one  of  the 
main  reasons  for  their  failure.  President  "Wayland  of  Brown 
University  \vrote  a  letter  strongly  urging  a  change.  The  people 
of  Rochester  became  deeply  interested.  On  the  22d  of  October, 
1847,  an  Address  was  printed,  signed  by  David  E,.  Barton,  Wil- 
liam !N".  Sage,  Elon  Huntington,  Henry  W.  Dean,  and  Alvah 
Strong,  appealing  to  the  Baptists  of  the  State  of  New  York 
to  transfer  their  University  and  Seminary  to  this  city.  The 
arguments  they  urge  are  so  striking,  and  the  whole  document  sa 
well  illustrates  the  spirit  of  the  movement,  that  I  venture  ta 
quote  a  few  sentences  from  it.  They  remind  the  denomination 
that  twenty-seven  years  before,  when  the  institution  at  Hamilton 
was  founded  : 

"  No  Grand  Canal  or  Railroad  had  determined  the  course  of 
travel  or  trade,  nor  wrought  their  influence  into  the  web  of 
society."  Western  New  York  was  then  a  wilderness.  "  How 
great  the  change !  Madison  University  is  remote  from  our 
thoroughfares  and  most  of  the  year  difficult  of  access,  only  twenty 
miles  from  Clinton  College — an  older  institution,  and  more  likely 
to  obtain  students  who  expect  to  pay  their  own  way  except  they 
have  the  ministry  in  view.  Eastern  and  Central  New  York  is- 
tilled  with  colleges  and  universities.  AYestern  New  Y^ork,  with 
six  hundred  thousand  inhabitants,  is  without  a  college,  except  a 
small  one  at  Geneva — a  population  nearly  as  large  as  Massachu- 
setts, where  three  large  and  flourishing  institutions  are  sustained." 
It  is  proposed  to  establish  the  institution  here  upon  a  liberal 
and  unsectarian  basis.  Such  an  institution  would  greatly  influ- 
ence the  thirty  thousand  inhabitants  of  Rochester.  "  We  seek 
$150,000  for  grounds  and  buildings  and  for  a  partial  endowment 
of  Madison  University.  Let  not  the  idea  of  losing  our  invest- 
ments in  the  buildings  at  Hamilton  deter  you.  We  shall  gain 
ten  dollars  where  we  lose  one.  Monroe  County  will  raise  $30,000, 
or  more,  of  the  above  amount," 

There  was  a  far-seeing  wisdom  in  this  scheme.  Its  projectors 
had  no  thought  of  two  Universities  or  of  two  Theological  Semi- 
naries. They  expected  to  keep  our  Baptist  forces  together  and 
simply  to  remove  Madison  University  to  Rochester.     As  we  read 


314  ROCHESTER   THEOLOGICAL    SEMINARY 

their  address  we  cannot  fail  to  be  impressed  by  the  zeal  and 
enthusiasm  of  those  who  signed  it,  and  by  their  evident  sense  of 
a  divine  mission.  It  rang  through  the  State  like  a  trumpet  call. 
Our  cities  and  villages  were  canvassed  for  subscriptions,  as  they 
never  had  been  before  and  as  they  never  have  been  since. 
Within  six  months,  $50,000  were  contributed  in  Western  Xew 
York.  By  the  first  of  January,  1851,  from  East  and  West  there 
had  been  subscribed  $1-42,000.  Let  us  remember  that  this  was 
at  a  time  when  our  people  had  not  a  tenth  jDart  of  their  present 
means.  The  result  can  only  be  regarded  as  a  wonderful  example 
of  enlightened  and  conscientious  liberality. 

Hamilton  had  been  originally  a  mere  training-school  for  the 
Baptist  ministry.  Young  men  who  were  preparing  for  secular 
vocations  were  after  a  time  admitted.  But  the  institution  did  not 
draw  either  its  students  or  its  support  from  other  denominations 
of  Christians.  The  more  progressive  among  its  friends  now  felt 
that  Baptists  ought  to  aim  at  sometlung  larger  and  broader  than 
the  education  of  their  own  membership.  They  thought  them- 
selves bound  to  do  their  part  in  the  general  culture  of  the  com- 
munity, to  invite  botli  pupils  and  financial  aid  from  Presbyterians 
and  Methodists  and  Episcopalians,  and  from  those  who  belonged 
to  no  denomination  at  all.  While  they  proposed  to  keep  their 
Theological  Seminary  under  the  exclusive  control  of  Baptists,  they 
wisely  concluded  to  give  an  influential  share  in  the  management 
of  the  University  to  Trustees  and  Professors  of  other  than  the 
Baptist  faith.  With  this  view  the  citizens  of  Kochester  were  ap- 
pealed to.  Public  meetings  were  held  and  subscriptions  were 
solicited.  Every  prominent  name  in  Rochester  and  its  vicinity 
can  be  found  in  the  list  of  men  who  signed  the  calls  or  made  the 
pledges.  On  that  roll  of  honor  I  read  these  following  :  Henry 
E.  Rochester,  Addison  Gardiner,  William  Pitkin,  Frederick 
Whittlesey,  Everard  Peck,  EHas  Pond,  Alexander  Mann,  Darius 
Perrin,  Samuel  D.  Porter,  Freeman  Clarke,  Levi  A.  Ward,  Henry 
R.  Selden,  Jacob  Gould,  Henry  Cook,  L.  Ward  Smith,  William 
W.  Ely,  E.  Pesliine  Smith,  Isaac  Butts,  Samuel  Hamilton,  AVil- 
liam  H.  Perkins,  Erastus  Shepard,  Isaac  Hills,  Thomas  Kemp- 
shall,  F.  W.  Holland,  A.  J.  Brackett,  J.  B.  Shaw,  George  F. 
Danforth,  E.  Darwin  Smith.  Only  one  man,  so  far  as  I  know, 
sought  immortality  by  declining  to  contribute.     I  shall  not  per-

petuate  liis  name, — I  will  only  j^erpetuate  his  excuse.  lie  had 
been  asked  to  give  upon  the  i^round  tliat  he  owed  something  to 
posterity.  lie  i-eplied  that  posterity  had  never  done  anything 
for  him,  and  that  he  did  not  propose  to  do  anything  for  pos- 
terity. 

I  have  already  mentioned  the  five  men  who  started  the  agita- 
tion for  removal  by  signing  the  address  to  the  Baptists  of  the 
State  of  New  York.  They  were  David  li.  Barton,  William  N, 
Sage,  Elon  Huntington,  Henry  W.  Dean  and  Alvah  Strong. 
Let  me  now  add  to  these  the  names  of  other  Baptists  who  were 
deeply  interested  in  the  project  of  removal.  In  Rochester  there 
were  Pharcellus  Church,  Oren  Sage,  Elijah  F.  Smith,  Gideon  W. 
Burbank,  Ahira  Gr.  Fitch,  Edwin  Paiicost,  Justin  A.  Smith, 
Albert  G.  Smith.  In  the  immediate  vicinity  were  Roswell  S. 
Burrows,  Yelona  R.  Hotchkiss,  Lemuel  C.  Paine,  Rawson  Har- 
mon. In  the  eastern  part  of  the  State  were  John  N.  Wilder,  Ira 
Harris,  Robert  Kelly,  William  R.  Williams,  Friend  Humphrey, 
Edward  Bright,  William  L.  Marcy,  B.  T.  Welch,  Smith  Sheldon, 
E.  E.  L.  Taylor,  J.  S.  Backus,  R.  R.  Raymond,  H.  C.  Fish,  A. 
B.  Capwell,  G.  C.  Baldwin.  This  is  certainly  a  noble  list  of 
names.  It  comprises  a  majority  of  the  intellectual,  social  and 
religious  influence  of  the  Kew  York  Baptists  of  that  day. 

This  influence  speedily  asserted  itself  at  Hamilton.  The  greater 
part  of  the  Faculty  and  of  the  Trustees  committed  themselves  to 
the  change.  But  local  interests  were  strong.  Opposition  was 
roused.  A  counter-appeal  of  the  citizens  of  Hamilton  was  issued. 
And,  as  this  Appeal  is  instructive  from  a  historical  point  of  view, 
I  quote  a  few  sentences  from  it,  as  I  quoted  from  the  address  of 
the  Citizens  of  Rochester.  It  begins  by  den3'ing  that  Hamilton 
is  inaccessible.  It  reminds  the  Baptist  public  that  the  village  is 
only  twenty-eight  miles  from  Utica  aiid  twenty  miles  from  Can- 
astota,  with  three  daily  lines  of  stages.  "  We  admit  that  part  of 
the  year  the  roads  are  bad.  But  in  June  and  August,  when 
Board  meetings  are  held,  they  are  for  the  most  part  remarkably 
good.  A  ride  from  Utica  to  Hamilton  in  the  month  of  June  or 
August,  is  considered  by  reasonable  and  cultivated  people  to  be 
not  only  comfortable  but  highly  interesting.''  "  After  the  pres- 
ent season,"  the  Appeal  continues,  ''  Every  particle  of  weight  in 
the  objection  will  be  extinguished,  for  an  enterprise  is  now  on 


310  KOCHESTER   THEOLOGICAL    SEMINARY 

foot  to  build  a  substantial  plank-road  from  Utica  to  Hamilton,  by 
which  an  easy  and  expeditious  passao:e  can  be  made  between  the 
two  places  at  any  time  in  the  year."  "  We  cannot  deny  that 
Hamilton  is  a  village,"  they  say,  "but  it  has  a  new  church  cost- 
ing $10,000."  Tliey  regard  a  moral  village  as  a  far  better  loca- 
tion for  an  educational  institution  than  can  be  furnished  by  a  city 
of  thirty  thousand  inhabitants,  with  all  its  temptations  and  vices^ 
its  monotonous  prospect  of  paved  streets,  its  larger  cost  of  living, 
and  its  lack  of  opportunity  for  thought  or  meditation.  They 
fear  the  aristocracy  of  a  city.  They  urge  that  Dartmouth,  Am- 
herst and  "Williams  are  located  in  villages.  Hamilton  has  stood 
for  thirty  years.  Its  hallowed  memories  must  not  be  sacrificed. 
They  cannot  be  transferred  to  Rochester.  "•  The  past  at  least  is 
secure." 

But  the  argument  that  proved  of  greatest  weight  was  the  legal 
argument.  Six  thousand  dollars  had  been  contributed  at  the 
foundation  of  the  institution,  on  condition  that  it  should  be  lo- 
cated at  Hamilton.  Removal  would  be  a  breach  of  faith  with 
the  dead.  Since  tiiat  original  gift  of  six  thousand  dollars,  at 
least  twenty-live  thousand  had  been  added.  By  removal  that 
sacred  treasure  must  be  sacrificed.  And  there  was  no  necessity 
for  removal,  for  the  people  of  Hamilton  were  prepared  to  pledge 
fifteen  thousand  dollars  for  the  repair  of  the  school  edifice  then 
in  use  and  for  the  putting  up  of  a  noble  central  building.  These 
were  the  considerations  that  finally  prevailed.  It  is  a  lesson 
for  after  times.  The  dead  were  permitted  to  rule  the  living. 
Instead  of  asking  what  the  dead  would  do  if  they  were  now  alive, 
their  past  dispositions  were  taken  as  incapable  of  improvement. 
The  legal  aspect  of  the  case  was  insisted  on,  to  the  exclusion  of 
the  moral.  The  local  interest  came  to  override  the  universal. 
The  village  triumphed  over  the  State. 

For  a  long  time  the  advocates  of  removal  held  on  in  their  man- 
ful struggle.  They  urged  tliat  the  College  and  the  Seminary 
belonged  to  the  Baptists  of  tlie  State  of  New  York,  and  not  sim- 
ply to  the  Baptists  of  Hamilton.  A  meeting  of  Baptists  was 
held  in  New  York  City  on  the  sixth  of  January,  1848,  at  which 
resolutions  written  by  Dr.  "William  R.  Williams  were  adopted. 
These  resolutions  declared  that  an  endowment  of  $150,000  was 
imperatively  needed ;  that,  if  Western  New  York  would  furnish 


HISTORICAL    DISCOURSE  317 

),000  of  this  amount,  the  eastern  part  of  tlie  State  ou(2;lit  to 
furnish  the  remainder;  that,  witli  these  sums  sul)scril)ed,  the  in- 
stitution ouojht  to  be  removed  to  Rochester;  and  that,  with  the 
expectation  of  raising  the  wliole  amount,  the  Legislature  of  the 
State  be  petitioned  to  give  the  Trustees  of  Madison  University 
the  power  to  remove. 

About  three  montlis  later,  or  on  the  third  of  April,  1848,  the 
Removal  Act  passed  the  Legislature,  and,  with  the  signature  of 
the  Governor,  became  a  law.  It  had  been  amended,  however,  at 
the  instance  of  the  citizens  of  Hamilton,  so  that  it  was  virtually 
a  compromise  measure.  It  permitted  the  Trustees  of  the  Univer- 
sity to  remove  the  institution  only  in  case  the  friends  of  the  former 
location  should  fail  to  raise  the  sum  of  $50,000  for  endowment  by 
the  first  day  of  August,  following.  This  the  citizens  of  Hamilton 
failed  to  do.  AVhen  the  University  Board  met  in  Hamilton  on 
the  12th  of  August,  1848,  only  $30,000  had  been  subscribed  by 
the  people  of  Hamilton,  while  $50,000  was  offered  by  Syracuse, 
and  $100,000  in  valid  pledges  by  Rochester.  The  Board  there- 
fore, by  a  vote  of  twelve  to  six,  resolved  to  accept  the  Rochester 
offer  and  to  remove  the  University  to  that  city.  This  however 
was  made  conditional  upon  the  concurrence  of  the  Board  of  the 
Education  Society.  That  Board  concurred,  by  a  vote  of  twenty 
to  two.  No  further  step  was  needed,  but  the  action  of  the  Edu- 
cation Society  itself.  That  Society  on  the  fifteenth  of  August, 
1848,  adopted  the  first  removal  resolution  by  a  vote  of  fifty-four 
to  nineteen,  and  the  second  l)y  a  vote  of  twenty-one  to  ten. 

The  advocates  of  removal  were  in  all  their  action  convinced  that 
they  were  proceeding  in  a  perfectly  legal  manner.  They  had  the 
elaborate  opinion  of  Chancellor  Walworth  sustaining  the  legal 
and  constitutional  right  of  both  the  University  and  the  Education 
Society  to  remove.  The  officers  of  the  Board  therefore  filed  the 
resolution  to  remove  in  the  ofiice  of  the  Secretary  of  State,  and 
thus,  as  they  supposed,  consummated  the  legislative  act  of 
removal.  The  opponents  of  removal,  however,  did  not  submit. 
They  carried  the  matter  into  the  courts.  They  objected  that  the 
action  of  the  Education  Society  was  illegal,  that  the  majority  in 
its  favor  had  been  obtained  by  the  exclusion  of  members  of  the 
Society  who  had  the  right  to  vote.  The  fact  was  that,  at  the 
Annual  Meeting,  as  many  as  forty  persons  residing  in  Hamilton, 


318  ROCHESTER   THEOLOGICAL    SEMINARY 

some  of  them  strangers  to  our  denomination,  availing  themselves 
of  the  easy  terms  of  membership  and  of  the  holding  of  the  meet- 
ing in  their  own  village,  came  in  unexpectedly  and  suddenly  on 
the  payment  of  a  dollar  each,  and  claimed  the  right  to  vote.  The 
object  was  undisguised ;  it  was  to  vote  down  the  resolutions  in 
favor  of  removal,  which  tiie  Board  had  recommended  to  the 
adoption  of  the  Society,  Their  votes  were  refused,  from  a  con- 
viction that  they  were  taking  advantage  of  the  letter  of  the  Con- 
stitution to  violate  its  spirit.  The  opponents  of  removal  objected 
to  the  action  of  the  Education  Society,  also,  npon  the  ground  that 
the  final  decision  had  been  reached  at  an  adjourned  meeting  held 
before  the  appointed  time,  and  before  the  opposing  party  had  ar- 
rived. Its  advocates  declared  that  they  simply  took  advantage  of 
a  tardiness  for  which  they  were  not  responsible,  at  a  time  when 
delay  would  have  given  their  opponents  opportunity  to  bring  in 
a  new  set  of  extemporized  members,  and  still  further  to  endanger 
a  just  verdict. 

We  must  grant  that  there  was  sharp  practice  on  both  sides. 
We  cannot  defend  all  that  w^as  done  by  the  advocates  of  removal. 
Their  excuse  was  that  they  must  oppose  artifice  with  artifice. 
Perhaps  it  would  have  been  better  to  let  the  opposing  party  have 
its  way.  Nothing  but  desire  for  union  prevented  them  from  tak- 
ing this  course.  The  result  w-as  simply  to  widen  the  breach 
between  the  two  parties.  The  friends  of  Hamilton  appealed  to 
the  Courts.  Injunctions  were  issued  forbidding  the  two  Boards 
to  proceed  further  in  the  matter  of  removal.  Upon  the  grounds 
already  mentioned,  the  election  of  Trustees  by  the  Education 
Society  was  set  aside.  This  enabled  the  Hamilton  people  to  elect 
Boards  to  suit  themselves.  They  passed  a  resolution  permanently 
locating  the  institution  at  Hamilton.  The  people  of  that  village 
seemed  to  have  the  legal  right  to  control  the  educational  affairs  of 
the  whole  denomination  throughout  the  state. 

The  former  Boards  of  the  University  and  of  the  Education 
Society  had  meantime  adjourned  to  meet  at  Albany  on  the 
twelfth  of  June,  1849.  Here  their  meetings  were  interrupted  by 
an  order  of  the  Supreme  Court,  and  an  informal  educational 
meeting  was  held  instead.  After  discussing  the  whole  situation,, 
it  was  resolved  to  call  a  Convention  of  the  Baptists  of  New  York 
to  meet  in  that  same  city  of  Albany  four  months  later,  and,  in  the 


HISTORICAL    DISCOURSE  319 

language  of  the  call,  "  to  consider  the  present  aspect  of  the  educa- 
tional affairs  of  the  denomination  in  the  State,  and  to  take  such 
action  thereon  as  may  be  deemed  wise  and  expedient."  This 
Convention  assembled  on  the  ninth  day  of  October,  1849.  It  was 
the  largest  and  most  representative  assemblage  that  our  denom- 
ination in  the  State  had  ever  known.  Almost  without  exception 
our  strongest  men  were  present,  and  there  were  six  hundred  del- 
egates in  all. 

This  representative  Convention  unanimously  recommended  that 
the  friends  of  Hamilton  surrender  their  University  Charter,  and 
that  Madison  University  be  transferred  to  Rochester ;  that,  with 
this  understanding,  Rochester  relinquish  its  project  of  a  Theolog- 
ical Seminary,  and  that  the  Seminary  be  retained  at  Hamilton  • 
if,  however,  Hamilton  should  refuse  to  give  up  its  University, 
Rochester  should  establish  both  a  new  University  and  a  new 
Seminary.  This  conclusion  was  a  compromise,  but  it  was  accepted 
by  all  with  joy.-  For  a  time  the  whole  controversy  appeared 
settled.  But  only  two  months  later,  on  December  4th  and  5th, 
1849,  the  Board  of  the  Education  Society  at  Hamilton  declined 
to  accede  to  the  recommendation  of  the  Convention  or  to  surren- 
der its  University  Charter.  The  Committee  appointed  to  urge 
upon  Hamilton  the  discontinuance  of  its  legal  opposition  to 
removal  reported  that  they  had  not  succeeded ;  they  reported  a 
plan  for  a  new  University  and  a  new  Education  Society,  as  the 
Convention  had  advised ;  and  they  resolved  to  submit  this  plan 
to  a  second  State  Educational  Convention  to  beheld  at  Rochester 
on  the  eleventh  of  May,  1850. 

At  that  second  Convention,  Judge  Ira  Harris  of  Albany  was 
Chairman.  Roswell  S.  Burrows  of  Albion,  for  the  Committee, 
presented  the  plan  for  a  Collegiate  and  also  for  a  Theological  In- 
stitution to  be  located  in  the  City  of  Rochester,  and  the  plan  was 
adopted.  Steps  were  taken  to  secure  from  the  Regents  a  Charter 
for  the  University  of  Rochester.  The  Convention  proceeded  to 
form  the  New  York  Baptist  Union  for  Ministerial  Education,  and 
to  elect  its  first  officers  and  trustees.  Forty  scholarships  for  min- 
isterial students  in  the  University  were  granted  to  the  Union,  pro- 
vided tliat  persons  who  should  subscribe  an  aggregate  of  $40,000 
for  the  endowment  of  the  University  should  also  consent  that  their 
subscriptions  be  thus  appropriated — a  condition  which  the  Univer- 


320  ROCHESTER   THEOLOGICAL    SEMINARY 

sity  Board,  on  the  seventh  of  July,  1857,  declared  to  have  been 
complied  with.  The  Convention,  wliich  we  may  properly  call 
the  Constitutional  Convention,  recommended  the  Trustees  to  fill 
the  chairs  of  instruction  and  to  open  the  institution  at  the  earliest 
practicable  period,  and  also  "  to  draft  a  calm  and  full  presentation, 
for  the  use  of  the  churches  of  our  State,  of  the  considerations  un- 
der the  solemn  pressure  of  which  we  have  been  shut  up  to  the 
formation  of  the  new  University  and  of  the  Union  for  Ministerial 
Education". 

So  the  University  of  Rochester  and  the  Rochester  Theological 
Seminary  were,  in  the  providence  of  God,  launched  for  their  voy- 
age. The  people  of  Hamilton  predicted  that  these  new  institu- 
tions would  soon  suffer  shipwreck,  and  the  people  of  Rochester  in 
their  turn  half  expected  to  hear  that  Madison  University  had  been 
•destroyed  by  fire  from  heaven.  Neither  event  has  taken  place. 
"We  cannot  cease  to  regret  that  our  forces  are  divided,  and  that 
we  are  two  instead  of  one.  We  still  feel  that  a  measure  of  blame 
attaches  to  those  who,  however  conscientiously,  permitted  legal 
and  local  considerations  so  to  blind  them  that  the  larger  and  ulti- 
mate interests  were  lost  sight  of.  The  result  has  been  a  costly 
one  for  the  Baptists  of  the  State,  and  has  compelled  them  to  sup- 
port two  colleges  instead  of  one.  But  we  must  recognize,  with 
all  this,  the  good  hand  of  God  which  has  gradually  smoothed 
down  the  asperity  of  feeling,  has  made  each  institution  a  means  of 
stimulus  to  the  other,  and  has  made  the  two,  in  their  different  con- 
stituencies and  by  their  different  types  of  culture,  the  means  of 
accomplishing  some  things  for  the  cause  of  education  and  for  the 
kingdom  of  Christ  which  neither  one  of  them  singly  could  have 
done.  There  was  something  of  wrath  in  our  beginnings,  and  the 
wrath  of  man  does  not  work  the  righteousness  of  God.  Yet  this 
seems  to  be  a  case  in  which  God  has  made  the  wrath  of  man  to 
praise  him,  while  with  the  remainder  of  wrath  he  has  girded  him- 
self. 

Before  1  pass  on  to  relate  the  actual  opening  of  the  Theological 
Seminary,  I  must  set  before  you  a  half  dozen  portraits  of  the 
founders,  that  you  may  know  what  manner  of  men  they  were. 
Of  all  that  list  of  olficers  fifty  years  ago,  only  one  yet  .remains 
with  us,  Edward  Lathrop  of  New  York.  During  all  this  half  cen- 
tury he  has  served  us  as  Vice   President   of  the  Union.     For 


HISTORICAL    DISCOURSE  321 

many  years  a  distinguished  pastor  in  tlie  metropolis,  and  still 
dhairrnan  of  the  Board  of  Trustees  of  Vassar  College,  we  rejoice 
that  his  liand  has  not  yet  lost  its  cunning,  nor  his  tongue  its  elo- 
quence, nor  his  mind  its  wisdom,  nor  his  heart  its  warmth.  Long 
may  he  yet  live,  a  visible  link  of  connection  with  a  glorious  past, 
and  an  object-lesson  to  shame  us  if  we  ever  become  degenerate 
sons  of  noble  sii'es. 

You  will  not  expect  me  to  speak  of  men  whose  interest  and 
work  were  more  innnediately  with  the  University  of  liochester, 
though  many  there  were  who  gave  to  the  Seminary  a  place  in 
their  gifts  and  affections  only  second  to  that  which  they  bestowed 
upon  the  College.  Their  memory  will  be  preserved  in  the  annals 
of  the  University  which  they  loved.  Let  me  mention  the  first 
President  of  our  Ministerial  Union,  William  R.  Williams.  Tall 
of  stature  and  with  a  maimer  finely  sensitive  and  gracious,  the 
lines  of  study  in  his  expressive  features  and  a  soft  music  in  every 
-cadence  of  his  voice,  he  was  our  model  of  a  scholarly  preacher,  a 
devoted  pastor,  and  a  cultivated  man.  Always  thinking  others 
better  than  himself  and  declining  academic  positions  where  he 
might  have  achieved  a  brilliant  success,  yet  occasionally  in  times  of 
great  national  or  denominational  stress  and  danger  flaming  out  in 
speech  that  thundered  as  well  as  lightened,  he  thought  no  calling 
so  great  as  the  ministry,  and  he  bore  himself  so  meekly  in  it  as  to 
impress  upon  all  who  knew  him  the  greatness  of  humility  and 
self-sacrifice. 

There  were  two  Vice  Presidents  besides  our  Dr.  Lathrop,  whose 
names  present  a  marked  contrast  to  each  other.  They  were 
Alfred  Bennett  and  Bartholomew  T.  Welch.  Alfred  Bennett  was 
the  old  fashioned  pioneer  preacher,  whose  lack  of  early  education 
was  more  than  made  up  by  sturdy  sense,  a  deep  Christian  exper- 
ience, and  a  mighty  grip  upon  the  doctrines  of  grace.  No  man 
ever  did  more  for  the  Baptist  cause  and  for  the  cause  of  Christ  in 
the  State  of  New  York  than  did  he,  in  those  early  days  when  un- 
der his  preaciiing  thousands  of  people  in  our  new  settlements 
were  made  to  feel  first  a  deep  concern  for  their  own  souls  and 
then  a  deep  concern  for  the  souls  of  others.  If  our  churches  be- 
lieve in  revivals  and  in  missions  today,  they  owe  it  largely  to  the 
labors,  sixty,  seventy,  eighty  years  ago,  of  Alfred  Bennett.  I  am 
glad  to  say  that  his  subscription  of  one  hundred  dollars  was  the 
21 


322  ROCHESTER  THEOLOGICAL  SEMINARY 

first  one  paid  to  the  University,  and  that  it  was  lie  who  preaclied 
the  Sermon  before  the  New  York  Baptist  Union  for  Ministerial 
Education  at  the  time  when  the  Seminary  was  opened.  The  old 
man  spoke  in  great  weakness ;  I  am  not  sure  that  he  ever  preached 
again ;  if  so,  he  left  a  noble  last  will  and  testament,  for  his  text 
was  Jeremiah  9  :  24,  and  his  theme :  "  The  Knowledge  of  the 
Lord,  the  true  Basis  and  the  highest  End  of  Education." 

Bartholomew  T.  Welch,  too,  was  a  man  made  for  the  pulpit, 
of  emotional  temperament  and  extraordinary  How  of  language. 
Reason  and  imagination  were  unusually  combined  in  his  utter- 
ance. In  Brooklyn  and  in  Albany  he  drew  great  crowds  to  hear 
him.  There  was  a  silvery  clearness  to  his  articulation,  and  a 
pathos  in  his  tones,  which  had  great  resemblance  to  those  of 
John  B.  Gough.  At  the  capital  of  the  State  members  of  the 
Legislature  and  professional  men  came  a  half  hour  before  his 
services  in  order  to  secure  seats  in  the  house  of  worship.  And 
he  gave  them  the  gospel — the  simple  truths  of  sin  and  salvation, 
and  many  were  turned  to  the  Lord.  Dr.  Welch  was  a  great 
preacher  for  the  city,  as  Alfred  Bennett  was  a  great  preacher  for 
the  country. 

As  I  come  to  the  original  Trustees  of  the  Seminary  I  am 
tempted  unduly  to  expand  my  discourse,  for  I  find  the  names  of 
A.  G.  Smith,  H.  E.  Smith,  J.  A.  Smith,  S.  S.  Cutting,  William 
Phelps,  Lemuel  C.  Paine.  I  can  only  mention  that  born  teacher 
and  elegant  classical  scholar,  from  whom  I  got  the  little  Latin 
and  less  Greek  with  which  I  went  to  college — I  mean  N.  W. 
Benedict.  Mild  in  discipline,  faithful  to  his  pupils,  a  pillar  in 
the  church,  his  influence  as  Principal  of  the  old  Collegiate  Insti- 
tute reminds  me  of  Jean  Paul's  saying  with  regard  to  the  obscure 
teachers  of  village  schools:  "They  fall  from  notice  like  the 
spring  blossoms,  but  they  fall  that  the  fruit  may  be  l)orn."  And 
I  can  only  mention  another  man  of  remarkable  force  and  mag- 
netism, a  natural  orator  and  a  natural  organizer,  a  counsellor  in 
matters  of  weight  and  difficulty,  who  has  had  no  superior  among 
us, — 1  refer  to  £.  E.  L.  Taylor.  He  gave  to  church  building 
and  to  our  home  mission  work  the  ripe  powers  of  his  manhood. 
He  gave  to  this  Seminary  the  wisdom  of  his  long  experience. 
But  he  did  even  better  by  giving  to  us  his  son,  and  through  us 
to  the  ministry  and  to  Yassar  College,  one  whom  we  delight  to 
honor. 


HISTORICAL   DISCOURSE  323 

Let  me  speak  a  little  more  at  length  of  two  members  of  that 

tirst  Board  of  Trustees  upon  whom  at  the  start  fell  the  heaviest 

burdens,  and  who  bore  those  burdens  year  after  year  until  they 

died — I  allude  now  to  Oren  Sage  and  to  Alvah  Strong.     J^either 

one  of  them   had  had  the  advantages  of  education ;  both  were 

plain   men,    l)ut   both    were   godly   and    generous ;    both    were 

resolved   that  those  who  came  after  them   should  have  better 

advantages  than  they.     In  Dr.  Northrup's  sermon  at  the  funeral 

of  Oren   Sage,  thirty  four  years  ago,  he  speaks  of  his  singleness- 

and  nobility  of  purpose,  his  loyalty  to  Christ,  his  determination 

to  speak  of  the  glory  of  his  King,  to  labor  for  the  triumph  of 

his  cause.     With   great   force  of  will   he  combined  a   glowing 

emotional  life.     How  often  with  brokenness  of  heart  and  tears  of 

joy  have  I  heard  him  speak  of  the  mighty  Sufferer  who  saved 

others  but  could  not  save  himself !     There  seemed  never  to  be  a 

time  when  he  was  not  ready  to  say  with  the  poet : 

"  'Tis  love,  'tis  love;  thou  diedst  for  me, 
I  hear  thy  whisper  in  my  heart." 

He  was  devoted  to  the  church,  and  felt  a  peculiar  responsi- 
bility for  its  prosperity.  He  lov^ed  the  souls  of  men,  and  no  day 
passed  in  which  he  did  not  personally  urge  some  one  of  them  to 
accept  the  Savior.  I  remember  his  stopping  me,  when  I  was  a 
boy  of  twelve  years,  in  the  middle  of  State  street  as  I  was  cross- 
ing, laying  his  hand  affectionately  on  my  shoulder,  and  expressing 
his  earnest  desire  that  I  might  become  a  Christian. 

For  his  means  he  was  a  great  and  continual  giver.  He  was  a 
most  successful  solicitor  of  the  gifts  of  others.  The  original 
subscription  for  the  University  was  snccessful  mainly  through 
the  efforts  of  John  N.  Wilder  and  of  Oren  Sage.  But  when  the 
Theological  Seminary  began  its  sessions,  he  gave  his  heart  chiefly 
to  that.  The  young  men  studying  for  the  ministry  drew  out  his 
best  affections.  He  was  made  the  chairman  of  our  Executive 
Committee.  As  he  had  more  of  worldly  goods  than  others,  he 
had  a  heavy  load  to  bear.  Solicitation  for  the  University  had 
almost  exhausted  the  sources  of  supply,  and  our  people  had  little 
left  to  give.  Many  a  time  in  those  early  days  the  meeting  of 
the  Committee  found  bills  accumulated,  but  no  money  in  the 
treasury.  The  question  stared  the  brethren  in  the  face :  "  Shall 
we  send  away  our  students  and  close  our  doors  ^ "     Then  Deacon 


324  ROCHESTER   THEOLOGICAL    SEMINARY 

Sa^e  would  say :  "  First,  let  us  pray."  All  would  kneel,  while 
tlie  Deacon  poured  out  his  soul  in  prayer  and  tears  to  God. 
Then  they  would  rise,  and  brotiier  Sage  would  put  his  name  to 
a  note  at  the  bank,  and  the  money  would  be  borrowed  to  carry 
the  institution  on. 

As  Deacon  Oren  Sai^e  was  the  first  Chairman  of  the  Executive 
•Committee,  so  Deacon  Alvah  Strong  was  the  lirst  Treasurer  of 
the  Board  of  Trustees.  I  must  be  reticent  in  speaking  of  my 
•own  father,  and  yet  I  wish  to  add  a  little  section  to  history.  He 
was,  like  Isaac  of  old,  a  man  of  peace,  yet  a  man  of  principle ; 
somewhat  broad  in  his  views,  and  of  unusually  tolerant  and 
judicial  mind  ;  with  healthy  emotion,  but  not  over-sensitive ;  a 
lover  of  his  kind,  yet  prone  to  listen  rather  than  to  speak.  His 
only  academy  was  the  country  school,  his  only  college  the  news- 
paper counting-room.  Not  a  profound  thinker,  nor  a  skilled 
writer,  nor  a  practised  speaker,  nor  a  master  of  social  usages,  he 
was  a  modest  and  honest  man,  careful  of  the  feelings  of  others, 
with  great  persistency  of  purpose,  some  inventive  and  organizing 
ability,  and  the  inflexible  determination  to  use  what  gifts  he  had 
for  the  glory  of  God  and  the  good  of  the  world.  He  was  a 
Christian  man,  with  no  brilliant  experience,  but  with  a  gentle- 
ness, kindness  and  reverence  which  were  unfailing.  He  talked 
to  others  concerning  their  duty  to  serve  Christ.  He  was  a  good 
deacon,  for  he  sought  out  the  neglectful,  visited  the  poor,  made 
himself  to  the  measure  of  his  ability  a  helper  of  the  pastor  and 
of  the  church. 

He  had  undeveloped  gifts  of  rhetoric,  and  an  ardent  love  for 
knowledge.  His  very  lack  of  the  higher  education  made  him 
eagerly  welcome  and  steadfastly  support  the  new  institutions  in 
Rochester.  When  he  was  worth  no  more  than  $10,000  he  sub- 
scribed $1,000  toward  the  endowment  of  the  University,  and  he 
gave  material  assistance  in  securing  subscriptions  from  others. 
When  he  died  he  left  less  than  $50,000,  yet  he  bequeathed 
$5,000,  or  a  tenth  of  his  property,  to  the  Seminary.  During  all 
his  last  years  he  served  as  member  of  our  Committee  on  Rooms 
and  Fixtures,  and  was  constant  in  his  care  for  all  the  external 
affairs  of  the  institution.  For  many  a  need  he  provided  out  of 
his  own  pocket,  letting  not  his  left  hand  know  what  was  done  by 
his  right.     But  he  contributed  more  than  money, — he  gave  to  all 


HISTORICAL    DISCOURSE  325 

who  came  in  contact  witli  him,  and  to  me  also,  something  of  liis 
spirit  of  hopefuhiess,  and  the  faith  that,  whatever  may  betide,  all 
things  shall  work  together  for  good  to  them  that  love  God. 

I  innst  not  fail  to  speak  of  the  first  Corresponding  Secretary, 
Zenas  Freeman.  He  was  a  fervid  soul  who  came  out  of  the  great 
Hamilton  tribulation  with  an  unwavering  conviction  that  Roch- 
ester represented  the  cause  of  truth  and  righteousness.  He  had 
a  warm  heart  and  an  irrepressible  oratory.  He  could  so  depict 
the  needs  of  students  as  to  draw  tears  from  the  eyes  and  money 
from  tlie  pockets  of  the  Baptist  brethren.  All  the  money  that 
he  received  he  scrupulously  paid  in.  But  brother  Freeman  was 
not  good  at  accounts.  When  it  came  to  locating  contributions 
and  crediting  them  to  their  proper  donors,  his  books  were  in  a 
tangle  and  his  memory  could  not  unravel  the  snarl.  As  my 
father  was  the  Treasurer  and  I  was  the  Treasurer's  clerk,  I 
learned  some  useful  lessons  of  Seminary  finance.  But  the  Annual 
Reports  of  Zenas  Freeman  and  his  appeals  to  the  churches  did 
much  to  educate  the  Baptists  of  Western  New  York  and  to  draw 
to  the  Seminary  young  men  whom  God  had  called  to  the  Chris- 
tian ministry. 

The  University  and  the  Seminary  are  twins, — they  came  into 
the  world  together.  They  are  not  Siamese  twins,  organically  and 
inseparably  united.  The  Seminary  is  not  necessarily  a  Rochester 
institution.  The  founders,  in  the  Constitution  which  they  ad- 
opted, make  no  mention  of  any  particular  location,  but  simply  say 
that  the  New  York  Baptist  Union  shall  sustain  a  Theological 
School  with  suitable  number  of  Professors,  The  wisest  advocates 
of  the  present  location  contemplated  the  possibility  that  at  some 
future  time  Rochester  might  cease  to  be  the  most  desirable  place 
for  its  work,  just  as  Hamilton  had  already  been  judged  undesir- 
able. And,  in  order  that  no  obstacles  to  removal  might  ever  be 
interposed  such  as  had  prevented  removal  from  Hamilton,  it  was 
provided  in  that  Constitution  that  "in  case  of  local  or  important 
questions,  including  the  election  of  Trustees,  the  decision  shall  be 
had  by  votes  of  Churches ;  and,  in  such  case,  one  annual  or 
life  member  or  delegate  shall  speak  for  the  churches  respectively. 
.  .  .  Any  three  members  of  the  Union  may  ask  that  a  question 
be  treated  as  thus  local  or  important  in  character,  and  the  pre- 
liminary vote  whether  such  be  its  character,  shall  also  be  decided 


326  KOCHESTER   THEOLOGICAL    SEMINARY 

by  votes  of  cliurclies."  Thus  even  the  city  was  prevented  from 
tyrannizini^  over  the  State.  Fifty  years  ago  Dr.  Williams  and 
Dr.  Maginnis  had  serious  thoughts  of  JS'ew  York  City  as  an  ulti- 
mate location,  but  yielded  the  Seminary  to  Rochester  as  command- 
ing Western  New  York  and  as  furnishing  at  least  for  a  time  the 
best  constituenc3% 

The  University  and  the  Seminary  not  only  began  life  together, 
but  for  some  years  lived  peaceably  in  the  same  house.  On  the 
first  Monday  in  November,  1850,  both  institutions  opened  their 
sessions  in  the  building,  on  West  Main  Street,  formerly  known  as 
the  United  States  Hotel,  but  now  leased  and  newly  fitted  up  for 
a  lecture-hall  and  a  dormitory.  The  University  had,  as  profess- 
ors, Asahel  C.  Kendrick,  John  F.  Richardson,  John  11.  Raymond, 
Chester  Dewey  and  Samuel  S.  Greene.  The  Seminary  had  two 
professors :  John  S.  Maginnis,  Professor  of  Biblical  and  Pastoral 
Theology,  and  Thomas  J.  Conant,  Professor  of  Biblical  Criticism 
and  Interpretation.  While  there  wei'e  sixty-six  students  in  the 
University,  there  were  twenty-four  in  the  Seminary.  These  be- 
ginnings were  humble,  yet  so  much  had  been  accomplished  in 
so  short  a  time,  that  "Ralph  Waldo  Emerson,  according  to  Mr. 
Wilder,  used  it  as  an  illustration  of  Yankee  enterprise,  saying 
that  a  landlord  in  Rochester  had  an  old  hotel  which  he  thought 
would  rent  for  more  as  a  university, — so  he  put  in  a  few  books, 
sent  for  a  coach-load  of  professors,  bought  some  philosophical  ap- 
paratus, and,  by  the  time  green  peas  were  ripe,  had  graduated  a 
large  class  of  students." 

I  take  this  report  of  Mr.  Emerson's  talk  from  the  "  Outline 
History  of  the  University  of  Rochester  "  written  fourteen  years 
ago  by  Professor  J.  H.  Gilmore.  The  first  class  of  students  grad- 
uated from  the  Seminary  was  not  a  large  one.  It  consisted  of  six 
members,  Joseph  A.  Bailey,  Erastus  H.  Burr,  Peter  Irving,  Charles 
Keyser,  Henry  M.  Richardson,  and  William  W.  Sawyer.  Of  these 
only  two  survive,  whom  we  to  our  great  joy  have  with  us  this 
morning — brethren  Richardson  and  Sawyer — both  of  them  hav- 
ing served  for  many  years  as  good  ministers  of  Jesus  Christ.  Of 
the  original  professors  neither  one  is  now  living.  Dr.  Maginnis 
taught  a  little  less  than  two  years  when  death  removed  him.  Dr. 
Conant  held  on  for  seven  years,  and  then  gave  himself  wholly  to 
the  work  of  Bible  translation.     The  real  greatness  of  the  Semi- 


HISTORICAL    biSCOUKSE  327 

nary  began  when  Ezekiel  G.  Robinson  became  its  professor  of 
Theolog}',  in  April,  1853.  Hotelikiss,  Xorthrup,  Rausclienbusch, 
Buckland,  Haekett,  Schiiffer,  successively  added  to  our  strength ; 
but,  of  them  all,  only  Dr.  George  W.  Northrup  is  left  in  the  land 
of  the  living. 

There  were  giants  in  those  days.  The  people  of  Rochester 
were  obliged  to  look  up  to  the  representatives  of  these  new  insti- 
tutions when  nine  men  of  the  stature  of  JMaginuis  and  Richardson 
and  Kendrick  and  Robinson  and  Anderson  and  Rausclienbusch 
and  Korthrup  and  Wayland  and  Buckland  walked  their  streets. 
Difficult  as  is  the  task,  I  must  try  to  set  before  you  those  of  the 
number  who  had  sj^ecial  connection  with  the  Seminary  and  ex- 
erted a  marked  influence  upon  it.  The  first  of  them  was  Dr. 
John  S.  Maginnis,  our  original  professor  of  Biblical  Theology. 
He  was  a  man  of  aristocratic  nature  and  bearing.  Born  in  1805, 
he  was  educated  at  Brown  and  at  Xewton ;  he  had  been  pastor  at 
Portland,  Maine,  and  at  Providence,  Rhode  Island  ;  he  had  held 
the  Professorship  of  Theology  at  Hamilton  for  twelve  years ;  he 
was  one  of  the  coach-load  of  professors  who  emigrated  from 
Hamilton  to  Rochester, — the  others  being  Thomas  J.  Conant, 
John  F.  Richardson,  Asahel  C.  Kendrick,  and  John  H.  Raymond. 
Dr.  Maginnis  was  tall,  but  bent,  with  weak  voice  and  many  in- 
firmities of  body,  but  he  had  a  clear  mind  and  much  force  as  a 
teacher.  He  held  tenaciously  to  the  stiffest  Princeton  theology, 
and  like  Dr.  Hodge  declared  it  to  be  not  only  the  doctrine  of  the 
Scripture  but  the  doctrine  of  the  Church  of  God  semper^  uhique, 
et  ah  omnibus.  In  his  younger  days  he  must  have  been  an  in- 
spiring preacher,  for  a  delegation  from  the  English  Baptists  re- 
ported to  their  brethren  that  he  was  the  best  example  of  pulpit 
oratory  which  they  had  heard  in  America.  In  Rochester  he  was 
past  his  prime,  yet  his  students  reverenced  him  for  his  power  of 
lucid  expression,  his  grasp  of  systematic  truth,  his  high-bred 
<}ourtesy,and  his  unaffected  piety.  His  death  was  sincerly  mourned, 
and  Dr.  AVilliam  R.  Williams,  j^ar  nohile  fratrum,  preached  his 
funeral  sermon. 

Dr.  Thomas  J.  Conant,  professor  of  Biblical  Criticism  and  In- 
terpretation, was  also  an  importation  from  Hamilton,  where  he 
had  been  teaching  for  fifteen  years.  He  was  forty  eight  years  of 
age  when  he  came  to  Rochester,  and  he  had  made  for  himself  al- 


328  ROCHESTER    THEOLOGICAL    SEMINARY 

ready  the  reputation  of  being  one  of  the  greatest  Hebrew  scholars 
in  America.  Ilobust  in  health  and  capable  of  endless  endurance, 
he  was  a  very  model  of  German  thoroughness  and  learning.  He 
could  work  twelve  or  even  sixteen  hours  out  of  the  twenty  four;^ 
and,  when  I  asked  him  how  he  found  time  for  pliysical  exercise, 
he  replied  that  he  had  long  since  ceased  to  feel  the  need  of  it.  So 
he  worked  till  tlie  end  of  life.  His  translation  of  Gesenius's 
Hebrew  Grammar  made  a  name  for  the  Seminary  as  well  as  for 
himself,  and  liis  annotated  versions  of  Job,  Matthew,  and  Gene- 
sis, are  still  unsurpassed  as  exact  reproductions  in  English  of  the 
original  Scriptures. 

But  our  greatest  man  was  Ezekiel  G.  Robinson.  He  did  most 
to  impress  upon  the  Seminary  a  definite  character.  Commanding 
in  figure  and  somewhat  austere  in  manner,  there  was  3'et  a  heart 
within  that  chilling  exterior.  At  the  funeral  of  a  child,  I  have 
heard  his  voice  break  so  that  he  could  scarcely  proceed  in  hi& 
address.  The  student  who  thought  him  brusque  and  savage  in 
the  class-room  found  afterwards  that  he  was  as  much  interested  in 
his  progress  and  success  as  if  he  had  been  the  student's  own  father. 
Men  feared  him,  and  yet  they  loved  him  better  than  he  knew.  It 
was  hard  to  tell  him  their  obligations  to  him,  because  he  had  such  a 
shrinking  from  praise.  He  had  a  noble  scorn  of  laziness  and  of 
tergiversation.  He  presented  a  magnificent  example  of  extem- 
poraneous speaking,  and  this,  quite  as  much  as  his  instructions  in 
homiletics,  made  the  graduates  of  those  days  true  preachers  of 
the  gospel. 

But  it  was  in  the  class-room  that  he  most  shone.  The  Theo- 
logical Seminaries  of  that  day  were  not  the  Theological  Semin- 
aries of  to-day.  There  was  much  copying  of  lectures  dictated  by 
professors  from  yellow  and  thumb- worn  manuscripts.  There  was- 
little  or  no  opportunity  for  question  and  free  discussion.  Dr. 
Robinson  changed  all  this.  "When  he  was  elected  Professor  in 
1853,  he  had  not  yet  settled  his  views  of  theology  ;  he  put  him- 
self side  by  side  with  his  students  as  an  inquirer ;  together  they 
fought  their  way  toward  fixed  convictions.  This  gave  a  fresh- 
ness to  his  teaching.  Freedom  of  criticism  had  no  limit.  He 
learned  from  his  students,  as  well  as  his  students  from  him.  But 
he  never,  even  to  the  end  of  his  days,  gave  them  a  fully  rounded 
and  complete  system  of  theology, — it  is  doubtful  whether  he  ever 


HISTORICAL    DISCOURSE  329 

worked  out  such  a  system  for  himself.  He  was  more  critical  tlian 
constructive  ;  his  chief  merit  is  that  he  taufi::ht  his  pupils  to  think 
for  themselves;  so  he  put  life  and  reality  into  the  ministry. 

Plato  declared  himself  thankful  for  three  things,  first  that  he 
was  born  a  rational  being,  secondly  that  he  was  born  a  Greek,  and 
thirdly  that  he  was  born  in  the  time  of  Socrates.  Personal  in- 
fluences are  the  strongest  in  education ;  let  us  be  thankful  if  we 
have  ever  been  the  pupils  of  even  one  great  teacher.  Such  a 
teacher  was  Dr.  Robinson.  When  he  was  made  President  of  the 
Seminary  in  186S,  after  having  served  thirteen  years  as  Professor,, 
the  Seminary  honored  itself  quite  as  much  as  it  honored  him. 
He  has  left  a  marked  impression  both  upon  the  doctrinal  concep- 
tions and  upon  the  homiletical  methods  of  all  our  ministry.  His 
views  of  moral  law  as  unchangeable,  because  an  expression  of  the 
inmost  nature  of  God,  and  his  realistic  views  of  our  relation  to 
Adam  and  to  Christ,  were  far  in  advance  of  the  theology  current 
in  the  Baptist  pulpits  of  his  day,  and  they  have  led  to  a  more 
Scriptural  and  at  the  same  time  a  more  rational  faith.  His  love 
for  reality  showed  itself  not  only  in  his  abandonment  of  the 
theology  of  legal  fiction,  but  also  in  his  adoption  of  the  most 
direct,  natural  and  incisive  methods  of  pulpit  address.  I  believe 
it  not  too  much  to  say  that  in  these  respects  he  changed  the  whole 
face  of  our  denomination.  If  as  a  people  we  have  intellectual 
freedom,  breadth  and  power  to-da}',  it  is  largely  through  the  pro- 
fessional teaching  and  the  personal  example  of  Ezekiel  G.  Rob- 
inson. 

It  is  painful  to  think  with  what  difficulties  he  had  to  contend,, 
and  what  sacrifices  he  had  to  make.  He  began  his  work  with  a 
salary  of  $1,200;  after  fourteen  years  the  salary  was  increased  to 
$2,000 ;  when  he  was  chosen  President  it  became  $4,000.  To  eke 
out  his  support  he  preached  on  the  Sundays,  often  riding  the  pre- 
ceding nights  to  reach  his  destination.  Besides  his  teaching  and 
preaching,  he  was  constantly  laboring  to  secure  aid  for  students 
and  to  increase  the  endowment  funds  of  the  Seminary.  He 
revised  the  translation  of  Neander's  History  of  the  Planting  and 
Training  of  the  Christian  Church,  and  he  edited  the  Christian 
Review,  as  mere  incidental  tasks  when  not  otherwise  occupied. 
It  is  no  wonder  that  these  burdens  told  upon  his  strength  and  that,, 
when  the  invitation  came,  he  decided  to  accept  the  Presidency  of 


330  EOCH ESTER    THEOLOGICAL    SEMINARY 

Brown  University.  But  he  gave  us  nineteen  years  of  inestimably 
precious  service,  and  during  those  years  he  did  more  than  any  other 
man  has  ever  done  to  make  the  Rochester  Theolooical  Seminary 
what  it  is. 

Dr.  Velona  R.  Ilotchkiss  became  professor  of  Biblical  Litera- 
ture at  the  departure  of  Dr.  Conant.  He  had  a  large  and 
successful  pastoral  experience  both  in  this  city  and  in  Buffalo. 
Nervously  constituted  and  with  an  insatiable  thirst  for  learning, 
he  was  a  rare  example  of  erudition  in  the  ministry.  lie  knew  his 
Hebrew  Bible  and  his  Greek  Testament  as  he  knew  his  English, 
and  his  great  ambition  was  to  make  the  Scriptures  known  to 
others.  He  taught  Hebrew  and  Greek  in  the  Seminary  for  the 
eleven  years  from  1854  to  1865  ;  and,  though  he  believed  in  the 
universality  of  the  deluge  and  in  the  creation  of  the  world  in  six 
literal  days  of  twenty-four  hours  each,  he  communicated  his  own 
■enthusiasm  for  Bible  study  to  each  of  his  pupils,  inspiring  them 
with  the  conviction  that  there  were  inexhaustible  treasures  in  the 
word  of  God,  and  that  it  was  their  privilege  and  duty  to  bring- 
out  from  those  treasures  for  the  instruction  of  God's  people  things 
both  new  and  old.  He  was  himself  a  remarkable  example  of  ex- 
pository preaching.  ]S'o  student  who  ever  heard  his  discourses  on 
the  Transfiguration  and  on  the  Fifty-third  Chapter  of  Isaiah  could 
fail  to  be  influenced  for  life. 

What  shall  1  say  of  Dr.  George  W.  Northrup  ?  It  has  been  my 
purpose  in  general  to  avoid  extended  account  of  the  living.  But 
Dr.  Korthrup's  work  in  his  Professorship  and  in  the  First  Baptist 
■Church  of  Rochester  was  so  unique  and  valuable  that  it  belongs 
to  the  history  of  the  institution,  and  the  one  cannot  be  related 
without  the  other.  He  brought  to  us  a  new  element — an  element 
much  needed,  but  not  before  represented  in  our  Seminary  life — 
I  mean  the  contemplative,  the  spiritual,  the  mystical  in  its  high- 
■est  and  best  sense.  Dr.  Robinson  was  intellectual,  critical,  stim- 
ulating, and  Dr.  Northrup  was  not  lacking  in  these  qualities. 
But  he  added  an  emotional  intensity,  an  aspiration  after  God,  a 
sense  of  dependence,  a  conscious  communion  with  Christ,  which 
were  not  so  manifest  in  Dr.  Robinson.  I  shall  never  forget  Dr. 
Northrup's  prayers  at  the  beginning  of  his  lectures — plaintive 
cries  of  the  child  for  the  guidance  of  its  Father — nor  his  rousing 
himself  from  reverie,  when  he  thought  himself  alone,  with  the 
words :     "  Oh,  that  I  could  be  like  God  ! " 


HISTOKICAL    DISCOURSE  331 

His  life  in  Rochester  was  marked  by  some  extraordinary 
■experiences,  comparable  only  to  those  of  Tennant  and  of  the 
apostle  Paul,  when  he  seemed  to  himself  caught  up  into  the  sev- 
enth heaven  and  made  the  recipient  of  communications  which  are 
beyond  the  power  of  human  tongue  to  utter.  I  was  myself  a 
member  of  the  first  class  he  taught  in  Ecclesiastical  History.  I 
have  sometimes  told  him,  in  a  half  jest,  that  he  never  taught  so 
well  afterwards.  I  meant  only  that  his  agonizing  struggle  at  that 
time  to  know  the  truth,  and  the  absolute  candor  with  which  he 
welcomed  every  suggestion  of  his  students,  set  us  to  work,  as  dog- 
matic teaching  never  could  have  done.  We  learned  a  method  of 
investigation,  that  was  better  than  ready-made  doctrine.  Our 
reverence  for  the  man  helped  our  studies.  The  great  revival  of 
religion  which  followed  his  supply  of  the  pulpit  of  the  First  Bap- 
tist Church  of  llochester  had  the  effect  of  sending  into  the  minis- 
try many  Seminary  students  who  all  their  lives  long  looked  back 
to  him  as  an  object-lesson  for  the  conduct  of  evangelistic  work. 
When  he  became  President  of  the  Theological  Seminary  in 
Chicago,  after  his  ten  years  of  service  here  from  1857  to  1867, 
Rochester  mourned  his  loss,  but  for  Chicago  it  was  great  gain, 
for  all  that  has  followed  there  may  not  improperly  be  said  to  be 
due  to  him. 

Dr.  R.  J.  W.  Buckland,  who  succeeded  Dr.  Northrup  in  the 
chair  of  Church  History  and  who  held  the  place  for  seven  years 
until  his  lamented  death  in  1876,  was  a  man  of  totally  different 
type  from  his  predecessor.  Gracious  yet  dignified  in  manner,  he 
brought  into  the  Seminary  a  certain  air  of  science  and  society 
which  had  hitherto  been  lacking.  He  came  from  an  important 
pastorate  in  New  York  city.  But  he  was  variously  learned.  He 
believed  in  a  kingdom  of  God  in  nature  as  well  as  in  the  soul. 
The  revelations  of  the  telescope  and  of  the  microscope  attracted 
him.  He  was  an  omnivorous  reader,  and  a  man  of  indomitable 
industry.  He  told  me  that  he  could  work  more  hours  in  the  day, 
more  days  in  the  week,  and  more  weeks  in  the  year,  than  any 
man  he  knew.  His  main  study  was  history,  and  his  aim  seemed 
to  be  to  bring  the  history  of  the  kingdom  of  God  down  to 
twelve  o'clock  on  the  particular  day  on  which  he  lectured.  But 
he  forgot  the  needs  of  the  body.  Suddenly  that  strong  frame 
succumbed  to  disease;  and  he  was  not,  for  God  took  him.     But 


332  ROCHESTER    THEOLOGICAL    SEMINARY 

he  did  not  live  or  teach  in  vain ;  for  to  Dr.  Bnckland,  fifteen 
years  after,  was  dedicated  a  certain  "  Short  History  of  the  Bap- 
tists," in  grateful  remembrance  of  that  broad  scholarship  and 
kindling  enthusiasm  that  first  inspired  Dr.  Yedder  to  study  Bap- 
tist History, 

The  last  of  our  English  professors  of  whom  I  can  give  any  ex- 
tended account  is  Dr.  Horatio  B.  Hackett.  I  well  remember 
Dr.  Robinson's  joy  when  this  eminent  scholar  was  persuaded  to- 
come  to  Rochester.  He  had  had  a  brilliant  career  at  Newton ; 
his  reputation  was  European  as  well  as  American ;  minute  accu- 
racy, entire  lucidity,  sometimes  a  quiet  elegance,  sometimes  a 
passionate  eloquence,  characterized  his  teaching.  As  modest  as 
he  was  devout,  he  pursued  the  even  tenor  of  his  way,  ambitious- 
only  to  bring  all  the  lights  of  linguistics  and  arcluieology,  of  ex- 
ploration and  of  art,  to  bear  upon  the  intei'pretation  of  Scripture. 
He  was  sometimes  criticized  for  generalizing  too  little,  for  avoid- 
ing doctrinal  conclusions,  for  confining  attention  to  limited  areas 
of  the  Bible.  But  his  students  learned  what  absolute  thorough- 
ness of  investigation  was;  learned  to  express  precisely  the  results 
to  which  they  had  arrived ;  learned  to  stand  for  the  scientifically 
attained  teaching  of  Scripture  as  authoritative  and  final.  During 
the  five  years  of  his  work  here  he  added  to  the  fame  he  had  won 
by  his  Commentary  on  the  Acts,  the  still  greater  fame  of  editing 
the  American  edition  of  Smith's  Bible  Dictionary,  and  he  filled 
up  his  days  with  usefulness,  for  he  taught  on  the  very  day  that 
he  died. 

In  1850  the  German  Baptist  Churches  of  the  United  States- 
were  only  eight  in  number.  But  they  were  growing ;  they  had  a 
missionary  sj^irit;  they  demanded  pastors  and  evangelists  with 
some  degree  of  training.  It  was  to  meet  this  demand  that  in 
1852  the  German  Department  of  the  Seminary  was  organized. 
The  beginnings  were  small.  For  several  years  instruction  was 
given  by  German  pastors  such  as  the  Rev.  A.  Heinrich,  and  by 
undergraduate  students  in  the  University  and  in  the  English  De- 
partment, such  as  brother  Philip  W.  Bickel.  The  first  teacher 
whose  name  appears  in  our  catalogue  was  Professor  Albert  H. 
Mixer,  who  was  at  the  same  time  giving  instruction  in  the  chair 
of  Modern  Languages  in  the  University.  Professor  Mixer  taught 
from  1855  to  1858.     He  was  during  those  years  the  only  teacher. 


HISTORICAL    DISCOURSE  333 

He  be£:;au  with  eight  students,  and  he  ended  witli  eleven.  Let 
us  never  despise  the  day  of  small  things,  for  the  first  name  in  the 
list  of  graduates  from  the  German  Department  is  that  of  Dr. 
Philip  W,  Bickel,  for  many  years  the  head  of  our  Tiieological 
Seminary  in  Hamburg,  Germany,  and  now  the  manager  of  our 
Baptist  Publication  Society  in  that  country,  while  among  the 
number  taught  by  Professor  Mixer  during  his  three  years  of 
service  were  Julius  C.  Haselhuhn,  Jacob  S.  Gubelmann,  and 
Conrad  Bodenbender,  brethren  whose  praise  is  in  all  the 
■churches. 

It  was  not  until  1858  that  this  Department  of  the  Seminary 
had  the  entire  time  of  even  a  single  instructor.  In  that  year 
Professor  Augustus  Eauschenbusch  began  a  work  which  lasted 
without  interruption  for  thirty  years.  Though  he  was  not  pres- 
ent at  the  beginning,  he  may  still  be  said  to  be  the  father  of  the 
German  Baptist  interest  in  this  country,  for  it  is  his  work  and  in- 
fluence, more  than  any  other  hnman  agency,  which  has  raised  up 
a  German  Baptist  ministry,  and  has  caused  the  eight  German 
Baptist  churches  of  fifty  years  ago  to  multiply  until  they  now 
number  two  hundred  and  forty-three. 

Professor  Rauschenbusch  was  a  natural  teacher.  A  pupil  of 
Neander  at  Berlin,  and  a  Lutheran  pastor  in  Germany,  he  heard 
the  call  of  his  exiled  countrymen  in  the  back  woods  of  America, 
and  with  the  truest  missionary  zeal  he  left  home  and  countr}-  to 
give  them  the  gospel.  Here  he  became  a  Baptist.  His  Univer- 
sity training,  his  varied  learning,  and  his  gifts  as  a  teacher,  marked 
him  as  conspicuously  fitted  for  the  training  of  German  young- 
men  for  the  ministry.  He  began  his  work  on  a  salary  of  $600. 
He  taught  English  and  German,  Latin  and  Greek,  geology,  bot- 
any, astronomy,  natural  history,  grammar  and  rhetoric,  homiletics 
and  theology,  the  Old  Testament  and  the  New,  the  history  of  the 
world  and  the  history  of  the  churcli,  with  readings  from  the 
poets,  the  criticism  of  sermons,  lectures  on  manners  and  morals, 
.and  occasional  expeditions  for  the  raising  of  money. 

He  could  not  have  done  all  this  if  he  had  not  had  a  well-stored 
mind,  astonishing  endurance,  and  an  inner  impulse  to  impart 
what  he  knew  to  others.  AYlien  a  friend  asked  Charles  Lamb 
whether  he  had  ever  heard  Coleridge  preach.  Lamb  replied 
-that  he  had   never  hear  Coleridije  do   anvthino;   else.     So   one

might  say  of  Professor  Rauschenbusch  that  he  was  never  known 
to  do  anything  else  than  to  teach.  He  eonld  not  help  teaching, 
and  that  with  an  enthusiasm  that  roused  the  dullest  of  pupils. 
He  tolerated  no  inattention.  As  he  himself  was,  so  lie  expected 
every  student  to  be,  totus  in  illis.  It  was  the  German  type  of 
instruction ;  it  demanded  patience  and  docility  in  the  student ; 
but  patience  and  docility  were  rewarded.  His  thirty  years  of 
service  bore  great  fruit.  The  ministers  of  the  gospel  trained  by 
him  have  gone  to  every  quarter  of  the  land  and  of  the  globe,  and 
they  have  carried  everywhere  sound  doctrine  and  a  profound 
reverence  for  the  Scriptures.  That  our  German  churches  are  so 
evangelical  and  so  spiritual  to-day  is  largely  due  to  the  influence 
of  Professor  Augustus  Rauschenbusch. 

And,  now  that  I  am  speaking  of  the  German  Department,  let 
me  not  forget  to  mention  Professor  Hermann  M.  Schiiffer,  who 
entered  upon  his  labors  as  Professor  of  the  New  Testament  in 
1872,  and  continued  to  teach  until  his  death  in  1898.  JMo  other 
man  has  done  so  much  as  he  for  the  material  welfare  of  the  De- 
partment. He  was  an  optimist,  and  a  believer  in  the  power  of  a 
cheerful  face  and  a  resolute  will.  He  could  get  people  to  give 
money,  because  he  always  took  JS^o  to  mean  Yes,  and,  after  he 
had  been  peremptorily  refused,  soon  came  again  with  the  self- 
same plea  for  aid.  Human  nature  could  not  forever  resist  his 
appeals.  He  was  an  excellent  teacher,  as  the  men  whom  he  pre- 
pared for  our  English  Department  again  and  again  demonstrated 
to  us.  But  he  was  even  a  better  manager  and  administrator. 
The  noble  ediiice  called  the  German  Students'  Home  would 
never  have  been  built,  if  it  had  not  been  for  his  collection  of  the 
needful  funds.  It  almost  broke  his  heart,  when  he  found  that 
successive  efforts  to  raise  a  German  Endowment  Fund  of  $100,- 
000  resulted  only  in  apparent  failure.  It  was  anxiety,  indeed, 
that  brought  him  to  his  grave.  Yet  his  very  death  brought  the 
answer  to  his  prayers.  Like  Samson,  he  slew  more  in  his  dying 
than  in  his  life ;  for,  moved  by  compunction,  men  gave  then  who 
liad  refused  to  give  ])efore;  and  at  last  the  long  effort,  that  had 
cost  Professor  Schiiffer  his  life,  was  crowned  with  success. 

The  mention  of  the  German  endowment  suggests  the  general 
subject  of  the  financial  progress  of  the  Seminary.  As  has  been 
already  indicated,  the  first  attempts  to  provide  for  its  material 


HISTORICAL    DISCOURSE  335 

wants  were  hampered  by  the  fact  that  the  University  of  Roches- 
ter had  ah'eady  reaped  the  Held,  so  that  the  Seminary  could  only 
glean  what  i-emained.  Many  who  gave  to  the  University,  more- 
over, gave  with  the  view  of  helping  the  cause  of  ministerial  edu- 
cation, and  they  were  surprised  when  a  second  appeal  was  made 
for  specifically  theological  training.  The  Seminar}^  was  often 
confounded  with  the  University.  Legacies  and  gifts  really  in- 
tended for  the  Seminary  were  through  misunderstanding  paid 
over  to  the  University.  It  was  difficult  to  convince  the  public 
that  two  institutions  occupying  the  same  building  and  supported 
by  the  same  denomination  were  totally  distinct  from  one  another, 
having  diiierent  faculties,  bodies  of  students,  and  boards  of  con- 
trol. It  is  easy  to  see  how  an  element  of  friction  was  introduced 
between  the  two  institutions ;  how  they  became  competitors  for 
subscriptions ;  how  the  friends  of  the  Seminary  began  to  fear  that 
it  might  be  so  overshadowed  by  the  University  as  to  lose  its  inde- 
pendence ;  how  two  noble  men  like  Dr.  Robinson  and  Dr.  Ander- 
son, originally  fast  friends,  came  to  be  somewhat  jealous  of  each 
other's  influence. 

While  the  University  of  Rochester  began  its  sessions  in  ISTovem- 
ber,  1850,  with  $140,000  subscribed  for  its  endowment,  the  Sem- 
inary began  its  existence  with  ten  or  twelve  temporary  scholar- 
ships of  seventy  dollars  each — aggregating  some  seven  hundred 
dollars,  and  with  a  little  over  three  hundred  dollars  paid  into  the 
treasury  for  other  purposes.  The  first  report  of  the  Trustees 
says  encouragingly  that  board  could  be  obtained  of  the  janitor  at 
$1.50  per  week,  and  that  several  brethren  in  the  city  had  offered 
to  take  students  into  their  families  to  board  through  the  year 
without  expense.  My  father  was  one  of  these  men  of  hospitable 
mind.  Yet  twenty-six  young  men  were  received  by  the  society 
as  beneficiaries,  and  it  was  solemnly  voted  that  no  worthy  young 
man  who  gave  evidence  of  being  called  by  God  to  the  ministry 
should  for  lack  of  funds  be  denied  beneficiary  aid.  If  ever  an 
institution  was  started  in  naked  faith  that  God  would  provide,  it 
was  the  Rochester  Theological  Seminary,  for  its  total  assets  at 
the  beginning,  in  money  and  subscriptions,  could  not  have  greatly 
exceeded  one  thousand  dollars.  It  was  wholly  without  invested 
funds,  and  was  dependent  upon  the  churches  for  means  to  defray 
its  current  expenses  as  well  as  to  support  its  students. 


336  ROCHESTER   THEOLOGICAL    SEMINARY 

Tlie  first  effort  to  raise  an  endowment  aimed  at  a  fund  of  only 
seventy-five  thousand  dollars.  The  Eev.  Zenas  Freeman,  at  the 
end  of  his  eight  years  of  service  as  our  Corresponding  Secretary, 
had  succeeded  in  securing  sixty  thousand  dollars  of  this  sum. 
Archibald  Servoss  followed  in  the  secretaryship  and  held  office 
for  three  years.  But  it  was  not  till  Dr.  Kobinson  tiirew  himself 
into  the  breach,  and  added  the  duties  of  secretary  to  his  profes- 
sorship, that  the  whole  amount  was  raised.  Dr.  Robinson's  labors 
were  so  successful  that  in  1868  the  Board  of  Trustees  reported 
an  aggregate  endowment  fund  of  $103,666,  of  which  $80,84:1 
was  invested  and  $22,825  consisted  in  unpaid  subscriptions.  At 
the  close  of  Dr.  Robinson's  services  as  President  and  Professor 
in  1872,  and  when  the  Seminary  was  just  twenty-tw^o  years  old, 
the  Treasurer  of  the  Union,  Mr.  Cyrus  F.  Paine,  reported  the 
■endowment  funds  as  amounting  to  $113,750,  of  which  $106,275 
was  invested,  and  $7,175  consisted  in  interest-bearing  subscrip- 
tions. New  pledges,  however,  had  been  made,  in  response  to  the 
solicitations  of  Dr.  Robinson,  and  Mr.  James  D.  Reid,  who  had 
taken  upon  himself  the  work  of  Secretary,  reported  that  these 
pledges  would  increase  the  endowment  fund  to  over  $200,000. 

It  was  in  this  year,  1872,  or  twenty-eight  years  ago,  that  the 
present  incumbent,  with  great  self-distrust,  took  Dr.  Robinson's 
place  when  that  great  man  and  great  teacher  left  the  Seminary 
to  become  President  of  Brown  University.  I  had  not  been  long 
in  my  position  before  I  found  that  the  salaries  of  our  professors 
as  well  as  my  own  salary  failed  to  be  paid  at  the  proper  time. 
Inquiry  disclosed  the  fact  that  the  interest  on  endowment 
funds,  increased  as  they  had  been,  was  far  from  sufficient  to  meet 
the  needs  of  a  growing  institution.  Though  I  had  stipulated,  in 
accepting  my  place,  that  I  should  be  excused  for  two  years  from 
all  w^ork  in  the  raising  of  money,  I  saw  that  without  additional 
funds  we  must  close  our  doors.  With  an  anxious  heart  I  went 
to  New  York  City  and  begged  for  help.  To  my  great  gratifica- 
tion and  surprise,  men  of  generosity  and  wealth  responded  to  my 
appeals.  Our  deficit  was  immediately  paid;  new  funds  were 
soon  subscribed ;  buildings  were  gradually  provided  for.  From 
year  to  year  these  efforts  have  been  repeated,  until  now  in  the 
fiftieth  year  of  our  Seminarj'  history  we  are  enabled  to  report, 
instead  of  $200,000,  a  property  of  $878,689,  of  which  $77,300  is 


HISTORICAL   DISCOURSE  337 

the  estimated  value  of  the  library,  $131,631  of  the  buildings  and 
grounds,  and  $669,758  of  the  invested  funds. 

A  historical  sketch  like  this  would  be  very  incomplete  if  it  did 
not  include  some  account  of  the  principal  givers.  First  and 
foremost  among  these  is  one  to  whom  we  can  never  cease  to  be 
grateful,  because  he  came  to  our  rescue  in  a  time  of  great  need, 
and  stood  persistently  by,  until  the  Seminary  was  beyond  the 
danger  of  collapse  or  extinction.  I  mean  John  B.  Trevor,  of 
Yonkers,  N.  Y.  He  became  a  Trustee  of  the  Seminary  in  1868, 
through  the  influence  of  his  pastor,  one  of  our  graduates.  Dr. 
A.  J.  F.  Behrends.  He  interested  himself  in  our  work ;  he  con- 
tributed $18,000  toward  the  erection  of  the  building  known  as 
TrevoivHall ;  he  gave  §30,000  for  the  endowment  of  the  chair  of 
!New  Testament  Interpretation  occupied  by  Dr.  Hackett.  When 
I  began  my  own  efforts  to  collect  funds  for  the  Seminary,  I 
naturally  made  my  first  appeal  to  him.  He  not  only  responded 
most  generously,  but  he  did  more, — he  told  me  in  so  many  words 
that  he  had  resolved  to  concentrate  his  gifts  to  education  upon 
Rochester,  and  by  Rochester  I  understood  him  at  that  time  to 
mean  the  Rochester  Theological  Seminary,  although  he  after- 
wards did  give  almost  as  largely  to  the  University. 

Having  once  given  me  his  confidence,  he  did  not  withdraw  it. 
Again  and  again  he  cleared  off  our  annually  recurring  deficits. 
He  was  sometimes  brusque  in  manner,  but  this  was  because  he 
knew  his  own  mind  and  had  no  time  to  waste.  In  his  business 
he  made  important  decisions  with  lightning-like  rapidity,  and  he 
•carried  this  characteristic  into  his  benevolence.  A  few  years 
After  my  acquaintance  with  him  began,  I  made  an  expedition  to 
Kew  York  with  a  heavy  burden  upon  me.  He  invited  me  into 
the  upper  room  of  his  office,  where  we  could  talk  in  private. 
'"  Well,"  he  said,  ''  what  is  it  that  you  most  need  ? "  '*'  Mr.  Tre- 
vor," I  replied,  "  we  have  a  debt  of  $13,000  that  is  hanging  like 
a  millstone  about  our  necks."  "Don't  trouble  yourself  further 
about  that.  Dr.  Strong;  I  will  pay  that."  This  so  took  my 
breath  away,  that  I  had  hardly  presence  of  mind  to  say  my 
thanks,  when  he  added :  "  Is  there  anything  else  that  you 
need?"  Then  I  told  him  of  our  meagre  accommodations  for 
lectures  in  Trevor  Hall,  and  the  need  of  an  additional  building 
for  temporary  use.  He  asked  the  probable  cost  of  it.  I  told  him 
22 


338  ROCHESTER   THEOLOGICAL   SEMINARY 

that  $12,000  would  be  sufficient  "Well,"  he  said,  "I  will  give 
that.  Anything  else  ? "  So,  before  1  left  him,  he  had  given  me 
thirty-two  thousand  dollars.  "When  he  died  in  1800,  the  total 
amount  of  his  gifts  to  the  Seminaiy  had  reached  the  sum  of 
$209,000.  Trevor  llall,  the  Trevor  Professorship  of  New  Testa- 
ment Exegesis,  and  the  Trevor  lieading-room  Fund,  are  lasting 
monuments  to  his  memory ;  and,  since  his  death,  Mrs.  Trevor 
has  generously  endowed  the  Trevor  Lectureship  by  a  gift  of 
$10,000.  But  to  all  of  those  who  intimately  knew  him  there  is 
a  remembrance  of  his  quick,  frank,  faitliful,  generous  nature, 
which  needs  no  outward  monument  to  perpetuate  it. 

The  next  largest  giver  to  the  Seminary  funds  is  Mr.  John  D. 
Kockefeller,  and  the  amount  he  has  already  paid  into  ouj;'  treas- 
ury is  $160,833.  This  does  not  include  his  recent  pledge  of 
$150,000  upon  condition  that  a  like  sum  be  raised  by  us.  Already 
$65,000  of  this  amount  has  been  subscribed,  and  an  addition  of 
$130,000  to  our  endowment  has  been  thus  secured.  If  I  were  de- 
scribing: the  livins:  benefactors  of  the  institution,  nothing  would 
please  me  more  than  to  speak  of  some  of  his  noble  characteristics^ 
but  this  I  must  leave  to  future  and  worthier  historians.  And 
since  time  presses,  I  can  mention  only  hastily  the  names  of  a  few 
whose  gifts  have  brought  joy  to  our  hearts  and  have  greatl}- 
helped  the  work  of  the  Seminary.  In  1851  Koswell  S.  Burrows 
of  Albion  purchased  the  Neander  Library  of  forty  six  hundred 
volumes  for  twenty  three  hundred  dollars.  William  Rockefeller 
of  New  York  gave  $25,000  for  the  enlargement  of  the  Library 
and  $7,000  for  other  purposes,  making  a  total  of  [$32,000.  A 
subscription  of  $25,000  by  John  M.  Bruce  of ,  Yonkers,  for  the 
establishment  of  the  Bruce  Library  Fund,  was  promptly  paid  by 
his  heirs  after  his  death.  Dr.  Horatio  B.  Hackett  left  to  us  his 
whole  exegetical  apparatus,  amounting  to  700  volumes.  These 
gifts  have  enabled  us  to  increase  our  collection  until  it  now  num- 
bers over  30,000  books,  exclusive  of  pamphlets,  maps,  and  objects 
of  archii^ological  interest. 

The  largest  legacy  which  the  Seminary  has  ever  received  was 
that  of  Eli  Perry  of  Albany,  amounting  to  $85,448.  We  have 
also  received  by  bequest  $21,404  from  Mrs.  Helen  M.  Kandall ; 
$10,449  from  James  Hubbell ;  $7,000  from  H.  M.  Baldwin  in 
addition  to  $2,000  given  before  his  death ;  $6,304  from   John 


HISTORICAL    DISCOURSE  339 

Dowley ;  $5,606  from  Lewis  B.  Grant ;  $5,000  each  from  George 

A.  Woolverton  and  Alvali  Strong ;  $3,000  from  A.  W.  Miner; 
$2,000  eacli  from  C.  C.  Bush,  N.  Kellogg,  Francis  D.  Alason, 
Mrs.  Julia  A.  Smith,  and  James  Stokes.  The  following  friends 
of  theological  education  have  given  during  their  lifetime  :  Joseph 

B.  Hoyt  of  Stamford,  Conn.,  $54,000,  of  which  $25,000  was  for 
the  endowment  of  the  Chair  of  Hebrew  in  the  English  Depart- 
ment, and  $12,000  toward  the  endowment  of  a  chair  in  the  Ger- 
man Department ;  Charles  Pratt  of  Brooklyn,  X.  Y.,  $26,250,  of 
which  $25,000  was  for  the  establishment  of  a  Professorship  of 
Elocution ;  Byron  E.  Huntley,  of  Batavia,  X.  Y.,  and  John  J. 
Jones,  of  Orange,  I^.  J.,  $20,000  each,  for  the  endowment  of 
Professorships  in  the  German  Department,  Mr.  Huntley  having 
contributed  $2,640  in  addition  for  other  purposes;  John  M. 
Davies,  of  Kew  York,  $1T,500,  and  Robert  K.  Davies,  of  New 
York,  $15,000,  both  for  the  endowment  of  the  chair  of  Biblical 
Theology;  J.  A.  Bostwick,  of  New  York,  $17,000;  Mrs.  Eliza  A. 
Witt,  of  Cleveland,  Ohio,  for  scholarships,  $15,000;  J.  O.  Pet- 
tingill,  of  Eochester,  $12,650 ;  John  H,  Deane,  of  New  York, 
$9,867;  John  F.  WyckofE,  $9,400;  John  Bush,  $6,100;  Nathan 
Bishop  of  New  York,  $6,000,  and  Mrs.  Caroline  C.  Bishop, 
$4,700 ;  Jeremiah  Milbank,  of  New  York,  $5,350,  Mrs.  Jere- 
miah Milbank,  $2,000,  and  E.  L.  Milbank,  $1,000 ;  William  A. 
Cauldwell,  William  Phelps,  Danford  Knowlton,  Royal  L.  Mack, 
A.  J.  Wellraan,  $5,000  each ;  J.  F.  Rathbone,  $4,600 ;  Senator 
Blakeslee,  $4,U50 ;  E.  L.  Hedstrom,  of  Buffalo,  $3,950,  Mrs.  E. 
L.  Hedstrom  and  Arthur  Hedstrom,  $3,150;  J.  Q.  Preble,  $3,800; 
Samuel  S.  Constant,  $3,040;  Oren  Sage,  $2,850;  A.  J.  Fox, 
$2,800 ;  Mrs.  W.  H.  Randall,  $2,500 ;  Charles  J.  Martin,  $2,200 ; 
Thomas  Cornell,  Russell  Forsyth,  Theoron  Fiske,  Mrs.  H.  M. 
Hutchinson,  S.  S.  Jewett,  R.  W.  Noble,  Mrs.  Martha  Stewart, 
$2,000  each. 

When  the  University  and  the  Seminary  were  first  established, 
the  old  United  States  Hotel  on  West  Main  Street  was  purchased 
for  their  occupation.  Its  cost  was  $9,000.  Additions  and  repairs 
brought  the  expense  up  to  $10,500.  Here  both  institutions  had 
their  local  habitation  for  eleven  years,  when  in  1861  the  Univer- 
sity took  possession  of  Anderson  Hall,  its  new  building  erected,  at 
a  cost  of  about  $40,000,  on  grounds  eight  acres  of  which  had  been 


340  ROCHESTER   THEOLOGICAL    SEMINRRY 

presented  by,  and  seventeen  acres  of  which  liad  been  purchased 
of,  Mr.  A.  Boodj.  Tlie  Seminary  purchased  for  $10,<)00  the 
premises  wliich  it  had  hitherto  occupied  in  common  witli  the 
University  and  it  continued  to  occupy  them  eight  years  longer,  or 
until  18()9,  when  Trevor  Hall  was  completed,  at  a  cost  of  ^43,000, 
on  one  of  the  best  locations  in  the  city,  and  the  old  premises  were 
disposed  of.  A  site  had  been  offered  to  the  Seminary  upon  the 
University  campus,  but  the  particular  portion  of  the  grounds 
which  the  friends  of  the  University  were  willing  to  set  apart  did 
not  please  the  friends  of  the  Seminary,  nor  could  the  Seminary 
secure  a  title  to  the  plot  thus  offered.  Under  these  circumstances 
it  seemed  unwise  to  put  their  new  building  upon  ground  which 
they  did  not  own.  Past  experience  had  taught  them,  moreover, 
that  the  growth  and  influence  of  the  Seminary  would  be  best  pro- 
moted by  an  independent  existence.  When  they  entered  Trevor 
Hall,  they  felt  for  the  first  time  that  they  had  a  permanent  home 
of  their  own,  and  they  have  never  since  seen  reason  to  regret  their 
decision. 

Mention  should  be  made  of  the  excellent  service  rendered  us  in 
the  Secretaryship  of  the  Union  by  General  Thomas  J.  Morgan. 
Without  his  labors  in  soliciting  funds  from  individuals  and 
churches  for  the  several  rooms  of  Trevor  Hall,  the  building  could 
not  have  been  erected,  even  with  the  gifts  of  $18,000  by  John  B. 
Trevor,  and  of  $7,000  by  James  B.  Colgate.  We  have  been 
blessed,  indeed,  with  along  succession  of  efficient  Secretaries.  As 
Zenas  Freeman,  Archibald  Servoss  and  Henry  L.  Achilles  pre- 
ceded General  Morgan,  so  James  D.  Reid,  Samuel  Adsit,  Henry 
L.  Morehouse,  William  Elgin,  Samuel  P.  Merrill,  and  Josiali  R. 
Henderson  have  in  their  order  followed  him.  The  sums  collected 
by  them  from  the  churches  for  beneficiaries  and  for  current  ex- 
penses have  varied  with  the  years  of  famine  or  of  plenty,  yet  on 
the  whole  have  steadily  increased.  While  the  Treasurer  s  Report 
for  1852  shows  only  $2,219  received  for  current  expenses,  the 
Report  for  1879  gives  the  amount  as  $8,725,  and  the  Report  for 
1899  as  $10,9(17,  or  including  a  special  gift  of  $5,000,  $15,967. 

Tlie  erection  of  Rockefeller  Hall  in  1879  marked  a  great 
step  forward  in  the  comfort  and  success  of  our  work.  The  fire- 
proof room  for  our  Library  met  the  condition  upon  which  John 
M.  Bruce  subscribed  his  Library  Fund.     Convenient  rooms  for 


HISTORICAL    DISCOURSE  341 

lectures  liad  hitherto  been  wanting-.  They  were  now  provided, 
together  with  a  Chapel  for  daily  M'orship  and  for  the  weekly 
preaching  service  of  the  Senior  Class.  Here  also  lias  been  held 
for  more  than  twenty  years  the  noon  jjrayer  meeting,  of  fifteen  or 
twenty  minutes  in  length,  en tirel}' voluntary,  yet  largely  attended 
by  students  and  professors  alike.  This  informal  gathering  for 
prayer  has  become  a  distinct  and  unique  feature  of  our  Seminary 
life,  and  has  exerted  a  vast  influence  upon  the  morale  of  the  in- 
stitution. If  any  one  has  thought  theological  study  unfavorable 
to  devotion,  he  needs  only  to  hear  the  fervent  prayers  and  the 
stirring  remarks  of  these  daily  meetings  to  be  convinced  of  his 
mistake.  They  have  taught  many  a  minister  how  to  conduct  the 
meetings  of  his  church,  and  have  proved  to  him,  even  during  his 
Seminary  course,  the  truth  of  Luther's  maxim :  Orare  est  Icibor- 
are — "  praying  is  the  best  of  working." 

During  the  half  century,  the  Institution  has  made  several  for- 
ward movements  in  theological  education,  and  the  steps  should 
be  chronicled.  Our  first  step  in  advance  had  to  do  with  the 
length  of  our  course.  The  Seminary  began  by  providing  a 
course  of  only  two  years.  This  was  found,  after  twelve  years' 
experience,  to  be  insufiicient.  Thorough  preparation  for  the 
ministry  required  a  wider  range  and  a  longer  term  of  study.  In 
1862,  therefore,  the  course  was  lengthened  to  three  years,  and 
for  this  reason  in  that  year  no  class  was  graduated.  Our  second 
step  in  advance  had  to  do  with  requisitions  for  entrance.  Until 
1890  the  Seminary  maintained  a  Partial  or  English  Course,  for 
the  benefit  of  those  who  had  not  enjoyed  the  advantages  of  a 
college  education.  But  it  was  found  that  the  number  of  these 
imjDrepared  students  constantly  increased,  until  they  drove  away 
fully  prepared  men.  With  considerable  trepidation  it  was  re- 
solved to  admit  to  the  Seminary  only  college  graduates,  or  those 
who  had  an  equivalent  training.  The  new  regime  has  worked 
most"  successfully.  Instead  of  diminishing  our  numbers,  as  was 
feared,  our  numbers  during  the  last  ten  years  liave  well  nigli 
doubled.  Our  homogeneous  classes  do  far  more  and  far  better 
work  than  was  possible  in  1890.  The  advantage  to  both  teachers 
and  students  of  the  requisition  that  all  persons  entering  the  Semi- 
nary shall  be  prepared  both  in  English  and  in  Greek  may  be  seen 
from  the  fact  that  while,  during  the  year  1889-90,  out  of  a  total 


342  KOCHESTER   THEOLOGICAL    SEMINARY 

number  of  sixty-four  students,  only  twenty-eight  took  Hebrew 
and  only  forty-four  took  Greek  studies,  all  of  the  one  hundred 
and  six  students  of  the  present  year  take  Hebrew  studies  as  well 
as  Greek. 

Other  institutions  have  followed  our  lead  in  this  resjDect, 
although  at  the  first  they  severely  criticized  it.  In  some  cases 
young  men  to  whom  we  have  refused  admission  on  account  of 
their  imperfect  preparation  have  turned  back  and  have  taken  the 
preliminary  college  training.  A  third  advance  movement  has 
been  inaugurated  during  the  past  year.  It  has  to  do  with  the 
conditions  of  aid.  Aid  is  henceforth  to  be  given  to  students  in 
proportion  to  their  scholarly  standing  ;  and  no  aid  whatever  is 
to  be  given  to  any  whose  scholarly  standing  does  not  promise 
intelligent  and  efficient  service  in  the  ministry.  Observation 
widel}'^  extended  has  shown  that  the  men  who  fall  out  of  the 
ministry  are  as  a  rule  the  poor  scholars.  Scholarly  attainments 
and  fidelity  to  the  work  assigned  in  the  classes  are  the  best  prac- 
ticable test  of  moral  integrity  and  the  best  guarantee  of  future 
usefulness.  Instructors  cannot  look  into  the  hearts  of  their 
pupils  or  mathematically  determine  the  amount  of  their  piety, 
but  they  can  observe  their  diligence  in  study  and  assign  their 
proper  grades  in  the  performance  of  their  tasks.  This  Seminary 
now  sets  itself  by  the  side  of  the  Union  Seminary  of  New  York 
and  of  the  Divinity  School  of  Yale,  in  refusing  aid  to  slipshod 
and  emotional  men  who  cannot  or  will  not  do  serious  intellectual 
work.  Though  by  this  change  we  may  temporarily  lose  in  num- 
bers, we  are  sure  that  we  thus  spend  most  economically  the 
money  intrusted  to  us  by  the  churches,  and  we  believe  that,  as 
with  the  previous  advances,  future  growth  will  justify  the  new 
policy  to  which  we  have  now  committed  ourselves. 

The  Seminary  would  never  have  been  able  thus  steadily  to 
move  forward,  had  it  not  been  blessed  with  a  most  judicious, 
progressive  and  harmonious  Board  of  Trustees.  The  Executive 
Committee  of  that  Board  has  been  especially  faithful.  There 
have  been  no  quarrels  and  no  divisions.  The  funds  have  been 
so  admirably  kept  and  administered,  that  the  increase  in  their 
market  value  has  very  considerably  exceeded  any  slight  losses 
due  to  foreclosures  or  failures.  To  these  brethren  who  have  for 
many  years  freely  given  their  time  and  their  counsel,  the  institu- 


HISTORICAL    DISCOURSE  348 

tion  and  the  denomination  owe  a  debt  wliicli  it  can  never  repay. 
Let  me  mention  only  a  few  who  have  thus  borne  the  burden  and 
heat  of  the  day.  Two  have  finislied  their  earthly  work  and  have 
gone  to  their  rest :  Hon,  James  O.  Pettino-ilj^  a  man  of  quick 
sympathies  but  steady  determination,  who  served  us  as  Trustee 
for  twenty-nine  years,  as  member  of  the  Executive  Committee 
for  twenty-seven  years,  and  as  Chairman  of  that  Committee  for 
sixteen  years,  until  his  death  in  1883;  and  Judge  George  W. 
Rawson,  whose  legal  acumen  and  keen  conscience  made  him  an 
invaluable  counsellor  during  the  eleven  years  from  1866  to  1877. 
Coming  now  to  those  who  are  still  with  us,  let  me  name  only 
four.  Mr.  Ezra  R.  Andrews  has  now  been  a  member  of  the 
Executive  Committee  for  thirty-four  years,  and  for  seventeen 
years  the  Chairman  of  that  Committee.  Mr.  Austin  H.  Cole  has 
been  a  Trustee  for  twenty-three  years,  but  a  member  of  the 
Executive  Committee  for  thirty-three,  and  its  Recording  Secre- 
tary for  thirty-three.  Mr.  D.  A.  Woodbury  has  been  both  Trus- 
tee and  member  of  the  Executive  Committee  since  1861,  a  period 
of  thirty-nine  years.  Mr.  Cyrus  F.  Paine  has  been  member  for 
forty-seven  years,  and  he  was  Treasurer  of  the  Union  from  1853 
to  1899,  giving  to  the  Seminary  forty-six  years  of  as  skillful, 
conscientious  and  laborious  service  as  was  ever  given  to  a  great 
Christian  institution.  If  any  man  deserves  to  have  a  tablet  set 
up  for  his  memorial,  in  connection  with  this  fiftieth  anniversary, 
it  is  this  most  patient,  kindly  and  self -forgetful  man,  who  has 
put  into  our  work  so  large  and  precious  a  portion  of  his  life. 

In  1870  three  members  of  the  class  that  had  recently  gradu- 
ated returned  to  Rochester  for  a  year  of  post-graduate  study. 
They  were  John  T.  Beckley,  afterwards  Pastor  of  the  Epiphany 
Baptist  Church  of  New  York  City  ;  Wayland  R.  Benedict,  now 
Professor  of  Philosophy  and  Dean  of  the  University  of  Cincin- 
nati ;  and  Benjamin  O.  True,  now  Professor  of  Church  History 
in  our  Seminary.  Thomas  J.  Morgan,  now  Secretary  of  the 
American  liJaptist  Home  Mission  Society,  was  also  frequently 
present  and  shared  the  work  of  the  class.  The  work  was  prac- 
tically identical  with  that  of  the  German  Seminar.  Hopes 
were  entertained  that  other  post-graduate  classes  might  follow. 
Dr.  Robinson's  removal  to  Brown  University,  and  the  increased 
demands  upon    the   Faculty,  made  it  impossible  to  realize  this 


344  ROCHESTER   THEOLOGICAL    SEMINARY 

hope.  With  our  limited  teaching  force  and  our  limited  endow- 
ment, we  liave  settled  down  into  the  belief  that  the  province  of 
the  Seminary  is  strictly  elementary,  and  that  the  wiser  plan  is  to 
furnish  the  best  training  in  the  rudiments  of  theology  and  to 
leave  post-graduate  work  to  the  Universities.  Nor  have  we  tlius 
far  fallen  in  with  the  common  view  that  it  belongs  to  the  Semi- 
nary to  provide  multiplied  elective  courses.  We  have  chosen, 
rather  to  offer  a  fixed  curriculum,  embracing  all  the  scholastic 
work  essential  to  a  specific  training  for  the  ministiy.  AVe  have 
regarded  a  thorough  grounding  in  the  Hebrew  Bible,  the  Greek 
New  Testament,  Church  History,  Systematic  Theology,  Homi- 
letics,  Pastoral  Theology,  and  Elocution,  as  the  matter  of  prime 
importance,  leaving  special  studies  to  be  pursued  elsewhere  after 
the  Seminary  course  is  finished,  and  in  this  way  conforming  our 
policy  to  that  of  the  best  schools  of  other  professions,  as,  for 
example,  schools  of  Law  and  of  Medicine. 

It  is  a  grief  to  me  that  limits  of  time  and  the  proprieties  of  the 
occasion  do  not  permit  me  to  praise,  as  they  deserve  to  be  praised, 
the  noble  candor,  harmony  and  loyalty,  that  have  prevailed  in  the 
Faculty  of  our  Seminary  during  all  my  connection  with  it  as 
President,  and  which  have  made  possible  all  our  advances  and  all 
our  success.  It  would  be  a  great  satisfaction  to  me  if  I  could 
properly  commemorate  the  services  of  Professor  William  C.  Wil- 
kinson, who  held  the  chair  of  Homiletics  and  Pastoral  Theology 
from  1S73  to  1881;  of  Professor  Albert  H.  Newman,  who  held 
the  chair  of  Ecclesiastical  History  from  1877  to  1881 ;  of  Pro- 
fessor Adelbert  S,  Coats,  who  held  tlie  chair  of  Elocution  from 
1881  to  1892.  It  would  specially  please  me  if  I  could  tell  how 
much  the  Seminary  owes  to  the  twenty-five  years  service  of  Dr. 
Howard  Osgood,  who  this  year  closes  his  work  among  us.  His 
learning,  his  courtesy,  his  piety,  will  leave  a  blessing  behind  them. 
May  his  days  still  be  long  in  the  land  of  the  living,  and  every  day 
of  them  all  be  filled  with  usefulness  ! 

Prof essor  William  Arnold  Stevens  completes  this  year  a  period 
of  twenty-three  years  of  instruction  in  the  department  of  New 
Testament  Interpretation.  He  has  given  us  a  method  of  inesti- 
mable value,  and  many  another  teacher  has  learned  from  him  to 
teach.  Dr.  T.  liar  wood  Pattison  has  for  nineteen  years  taught 
men  to  preach,  not  only  by  precept  but  by  authorship  and  by  ex- 


HISTORICAL   DISCOURSE  345 

ample.  His  brilliancy  and  wit,  strano;ely  combined  with  patient 
regnlaritj  and  Christian  fervor,  have  been  ever  like  a  fresh 
l:)reeze  throngli  wliat  might  else  have  been  dusty  halls.  Dr.  Ben- 
jamin O.  True  has  furnished  a  model  of  enthusiasm  in  the  study 
and  the  teaching  of  the  history  of  the  church.  For  an  equal 
period  of  nineteen  years  he  has  made  the  dry  bones  of  the  past  to 
live,  and  the  sacramental  host  of  God's  elect  to  pass  before  the 
student,  an  exceeding  great  arm3^ 

Dr.  Henry  E.  Robins  has  not  been  able  to  do  active  work  of 
teaching,  but  for  eighteen  years  he  has  without  compensation 
given  us  his  wise  counsel  and  his  constant  encouragement.  We 
cherish  the  hope  that  the  Christian  Ethics  he  has  not  had  the 
health  to  teach  may  yet  be  put  into  a  book  that  will  widel_y  and 
deeply  influence  the  thought  of  our  time.  Dr.  Jacob  S.  Gubel- 
mann  for  fifteen  years  has  commended  Christian  doctrine  to  suc- 
cessive classes  in  the  German  Department,  while  at  the  same  time 
he  has  shown  himself  in  our  American  churches  to  be  a  model 
preacher  of  the  word  of  God.  Professor  John  P.  Silvernail  has 
now  for  eight  years  taught  and  exemplified  a  simple,  natural  and 
manly  elocution.  And  of  our  younger  instructors.  Professor 
Walter  R.  Betteridge  who  has  served  us  for  eight  years  as  Assist- 
ant in  Hebrew,  Professor  Albert  J.  Ramaker  whose  work  in  the 
German  Department  began  in  1889,  Professor  Louis  Kaiser  in 
1890,  and  Professor  Walter  Rauschenbusch  in  1897,  I  can  say 
in  all  truth  and  soberness  that  they  have  fully  justified  the  con- 
fidence we  reposed  in  them  at  the  time  of  their  election,  and  that 
they  promise  great  and  distinguished  service  to  the  cause  of  mini-s- 
terial  education.  ]No  one  of  all  the  thirty-one  men  who  have  at 
various  times  taught  in  the  Seminary  has  apostatized  from  the 
Christian  faith,  while  many  of  them  have  been  great  lights  in  our 
firmament  and  great  leaders  of  our  people. 

During  the  last  fifty  years  our  denomination  in  the  State  of 
New  York  has  made  great  progress  in  numbers.  In  1850  we  had 
810  churches;  in  1900  we  have  934.  In  1850  we  had  744  min- 
isters ;  in  1900  we  have  953.  In  1850  we  had  81,509  church 
members  ;  in  1900  we  have  150,875.  During  this  same  half  cen- 
tury. Baptists  have  increased  yet  more  in  the  country  at  large.  In 
1850  we  had  in  the  United  States  9,549  churches ;  in  1900  we 
have  42,893.     In  1850  we  had  7,385  ministers;  in  1900  we  have 


346  KOCHESTER   THEOLOGICAL   SEMINARY 

28,409.  In  1850  we  had  801,770  church  members ;  in  1900  we 
have  4,141,995.  While  the  popuhxtion  of  the  country  has  in- 
creased a  little  more  than  three-fold.  Baptists  have  increased 
between  four  and  five-fold.  What  has  the  Rochester  Theological 
Seminary  done  to  help  this  growth,  and  how  far  have  we  kept  up 
with  the  general  forward  movement  of  our  denomination  ?  The 
statistics  show,  I  believe,  that  this  Seminary  has  been  one  of  the 
potent  factors  in  this  growth,  and  that  a  large  part  of  our  denom- 
inational increase  in  numbers,  in  intelligence,  in  hnancial  ability, 
in  benevolent  contributions,  has  been  due  to  the  influence  of  this 
Institution. 

During  these  fifty  3^ears,  1447  men  have  pursued  studies  here; 
of  whom  1128  have  been  connected  with  the  English,  and  319 
with  the  German  Department.  870  of  these  students  have  been 
graduates  of  colleges.  335  men  have  taken  the  so-called  English 
Course,  now  abolished,  and  of  these  87  have  been  college  gradu- 
ates. 688  have  completed  tlie  full  Seminary  Course,  including 
the  Hebrew  and  Greek  Scriptures.  385  have  taken  partial 
courses  or  have  left  the  Seminary  before  graduating.  The 
average  number  which  we  have  sent  into  the  ministry  year  by  year 
is  25.  AVhereas  the  Seminary  began  in  1850  with  23  students,  it 
has  this  year  148,  of  whom  105  are  in  the  English  Department. 
Of  our  graduates,  64  have  become  Presidents  or  Professors  in 
Colleges  or  Theological  Seminaries;  55  have  gone  out  as  foreign 
missionaries,  and  34  have  served  as  missionaries  in  the  great 
West ;  29  have  been  Secretaries  or  Agents  of  Educational  or 
Missionary  Societies;  and  10  have  been  Editors  of  religious 
journals. 

The  Seminary  has  gained  its  influence  by  adhering  strictly  to 
the  aim  of  its  founders,  that  of  making  preachers  rather  than  mere 
scholars.  Dr.  Robinson  gloried  in  teaching  homiletics  as  well  as 
theology.  He  declared,  in  so  many  words,  that  "  the  attempted 
<;on junction  of  a  study  of  Systematic  Theology  with  a  homiletic 
use  of  it  is  one  of  the  distinctive  peculiarities  of  the  Rochester 
Theological  Seminary."  We  have  maintained  the  early  traditions 
of  the  institution  also  b}^  cultivating  the  habit  of  theological 
thought,  rather  than  by  insisting  upon  the  acceptance  of  theolog- 
ical formulas.  Freedom  of  discussion  and  the  right  of  j^rivate 
judgment  in  the  interpretation  of  Scripture  are  essential  princi- 


HISTORICAL   DISCOURSE  347 

pies  of  the  Baptist  faith, — we  recognize  tliese  principles  in  our 
Seminary  instruction.  We  believe  in  the  progress  of  doctrine, 
not  in  the  sense  that  the  truth  changes,  but  in  the  sense  that  men's 
apprehension  of  tlie  truth  improves  from  age  to  age.  Theology 
can  gain  in  breadth  and  depth,  by  taking  in  the  fresh  air  of  mod- 
ern pliilosophy  and  science,  b}''  absorbing  whatever  is  good  in 
modern  thought  and  life.  For  all  that  is  good  in  modern  thought 
and  life  is  the  work  of  Christ  and  the  product  of  his  Holy  Spirit. 
I  believe  that  our  graduates  have  done  a  mighty  service  to  the 
church  and  to  the  world  by  presenting  the  old  truth  in  new 
forms,  by  adapting  the  gospel  to  new  conditions,  by  recognizing 
the  good  in  other  systems  than  our  own,  by  substituting  vital  and 
spiritual  conceptions  for  those  which  were  merely  mechanical  and 
legal,  by  insisting  on  a  personal  appropriation  and  a  unique 
expression  of  Christian  doctrine  on  the  part  of  every  preacher  and 
of  every  believer. 

I  have  taken  pleasure  in  this  retrospect,  for  the  reason  that  1 
was  here  at  the  birth  of  the  Seminary  and  have  had  acquaintance 
with  eveiy  stage  of  its  subsequent  history.  I  knew  all  of  its  first 
students,  and  I  have  had  the  privilege  in  these  later  years  of  wel- 
coming into  the  undergraduate  ranks  many  of  their  sons.  And 
the  children  have  been  better  than  the  fathers,  sharper  in  mind, 
of  liner  culture,  and  of  equal  piety.  May  the  prophet's  words 
continue  to  be  fulfilled,  that  "instead  of  the  fathers  shall  be  the 
children."  May  there  ever  be  a  truly  apostolic  succession  of  con- 
secrated men,  and  may  our  graduates  do  their  part  in  keeping  up 
this  succession,  by  sending  their  own  sons  hither,  and  so  commit- 
ting the  things  which  they  heard  to  faithful  men  who  shall  be 
able  to  teach  others  also  I 

Space-relations  are  something  to  God,  or  he  would  not  permit 
the  local  interests  and  affections  to  grow  up  which  so  bind  us  to 
the  Seminary  that  nourished  us  in  our  youth.  To  remove  an  in- 
stitution is  much  harder  than  to  remove  an  individual.  Rochester 
has  became  a  sacred  city  to  which  the  tribes  go  up,  and  many  of 
its  children  remember  it  as  the  Jews  remembered  Zion.  Time- 
relations  are  something  to  God,  or  he  would  not  have  made  the 
memories  of  the  past  so  precious,  nor  the  steps  of  our  progress  so 
plain,  from  those  early  days  when  here  we  met  with  God  and 
yielded  ourselves  to  his  service,  down  to  these  later  years  when 


348  ROCHESTER    THEOLOGICAL    SEMINARY 

we  recognize  tlie  good  hand  that  has  so  divinely  led  us  and  ac- 
knowledge that  not  one  word  of  all  God's  promises  has  failed. 

Yet  God  is  above  space  and  time,  and  we  are  in  God.  AVe 
mark  the  passage  of  time,  and  we  write  onr  histories.  But  we 
can  do  this,  only  because  in  our  highest  being  we  do  not  belong 
to  space  and  time,  but  have  in  us  a  bit  of  eternity.  John  Caird 
tells  us  that  we  could  not  perceive  the  flowing  of  the  stream  if 
we  were  ourselves  a  part  of  the  current ;  only  as  we  have  our  feet 
planted  on  solid  rock,  can  we  observe  that  the  water  rushes  by. 
So  we  recognize  the  process  of  events  only  because  we  are  not  a 
part  of  the  process.  We  belong  to  God ;  we  are  akin  to  God  ; 
and  while  the  world  passes  away  and  the  lust  thereof,  he  that 
doetli  the  will  of  God  abideth  forever. 

Fifty  years  have  past,  and  but  one  of  the  original  officers  of 
the  Union  remains.  Another  fifty  years,  and  none  but  the  young- 
est of  us  will  be  here.  But  the  Seminary  will  survive,  for  it  was 
founded  in  the  prayers  and  tears  of  the  fathers,  and  those  prayers 
and  tears  reflected  the  heart  of  God.  There  is  a  care  greater 
than  all  human  care.  It  is  God's  care  for  his  own.  And  there- 
fore we  believe  that  other  trustees  and  other  teachers  and  other 
students  in  long  succession  will  fill  these  halls  and  do  this  work 
of  providing  a  trained  and  competent  ministry  for  Christ's  church. 
"We  who  are  present  actors  on  the  scene  shall  pass  away,  and  not 
one  who  has  given  care  or  time  or  labor  or  money  or  prayer  for 
this  institution  shall  fail  to  hear  Christ  say :  "  Inasmuch  as  ye 
did  it  unto  the  least  of  these  ray  brethren,  je  did  it  unto  me." 
But  otlier  actors  shall  take  our  place.  The  resources  of  our  Lord 
are  infinite.  Hitherto  hath  the  Lord  helped  us.  He  will  pro- 
vide for  the  time  to  come.  And  if  tlie  history  of  the  past  gives 
any  pledge  for  the  future,  it  encourages  us  to  believe  that  the 
future  will  be  one  of  ever  growing  success  and  honor,  until  Christ 
himself  shall  come. 

And  yet  we  cannot  be  absolutely  sure  that  any  earthly  instru- 
ment is  necessary  to  God.  Thnes  change,  and  methods  change 
with  them.  Our  part  is  to  do  our  work,  to  stand  by  the  institu- 
tions Christ  has  put  into  our  charge,  to  make  them,  by  our  liber- 
ality, our  teaching,  our  influence,  what  they  ought  to  .be.  The 
present  is  ours ;  the  future  belongs  to  God.  We  trust  that  the 
Seminary  shall  abide  so  long  as  the  world  stands.     But,  after  all^ 


HISTORICAL    DISCOURSE  349 

the  Seminary  is  but  a  means  to  an  end.  That  end  is  the  proo-ress 
and  triumph  of  the  kinodom  of  God.  If  not  the  Seminary"  yet 
the  kini^dom,  shall  endure.  For  the  Kinc.  is  Christ,  the  saine 
yesterday,  to-day,  and  forever;  and  the  Rochester  Theoloo-ical 
Seminary  will  have  served  its  purpose  if  it  only  has  exaltedlnm 
-who  IS  Kniir  of  the  ages  and  Lord  of  all.
